560 WGAN has moved from it's 105.5 translator to 98.5. Currently simulcasting to let listeners know about the move. 105.5 would make a great translator for 104.7 WHTP which doesn't have a great signal in the city of Portland.

WGAN moved to 98.5 from 105.5

They wouldnt be able to own the translator. .a commercial station cant own a translator that is outside its 60dbu local signal
Wishful thinking
I noticed the 105.5 translator for WEZR 1240 in Lewiston looks like it might be moving to 95.3 according to the FCC applications.Coincedence, or is something up with 105.5?
I think WHTP could be simulcast on 105.5 if the translator were owned by a third party

Antenna issues press pause on new translator change
>>due to issues with the translator antenna and combiner. The new translator’s combiner system and antenna were causing matching issues that will require resolution from their manufacturers. W253DA shared an antenna with Saga’s “Rewind 100.9” WYNZ South Portland and three additional translators. WGAN continues to be heard on 105.5 W288CU Portland, which was set to debut a new form

560 WGAN is back on 98.5 this afternoon, and still on 105.5.
