Louisville 92.5 days of Christmas Music

Interesting.. must be a new frequency. I've never known of a station on that frequency before. I'll have to see if I can hear it here in Downtown Louisville.
 
Translators are considered auxiliary services. There is no requirement to have a certain level of signal covering the City of Licence. If a translator has "leap forged" thru various construction permits over the years without a "major" change many miles it doesn't matter. Atlanta has 101.1 the translator which is licensed to Winder GA. About 37 miles away.

This is correct. And from a marketing standpoint, they'd much rather claim to be a Louisville signal than a Charlestown, Indiana signal. I'm sure the area they want ison the Kentucky side from the Ford plant on Chamberlain Lane out toward Crestwood. The primary station it is translating is 1570 WLRS, which is crappy out that way in the daytime, and doesn't exist at all at night.

That is good no electric bill expense at night. I personally know of 2 class C AMs that would like to move to another channel as a class D with no night service (reducing the power bill by at least one third) but daytime coverage of their city of license isn't doable with 1kw.
