WAY-FM's W286BK, Birmingham

Speaking of the fruit basket turnover on 105.1 MHz, WAY-FM's translator on that frequency in Birmingham just received a construction permit to move from Hoover to Red Mountain.  The old facility off Farley Road in the Patton Chapel area of Hoover had just 10 vertical watts.  The new facility will still have just 10 watts, but V/H polarization, and will be about 300 feet higher up, on the "devil's pitchfork" behind WTTO and WIAT's studios.

Whether it ever gets built out or not remains to be seen.
