Ccommercial Band AM revitalazation translators in Louisiana

For those curious, the list has come out of people trying to get translators for their AM signals. The FCC has put out lists based off of 250 miles from a am station tower.

This is the easiest way to make the list to include All of Louisiana. I picked KPEL in Lafayette as a center as it should list all translators except maybe one or two in far north Louisiana on Arkansas line

For those looking for closer to North La, I picked KRUS in Ruston as a center

Most interesting one, was apparently the folks at WQNO 690am in New Orleans who didn't bother a engineer before filing for a translator and now find out they applied for a translator 1.3 air miles from WNOE.. on the same 101.1 Frequency!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OOOOOOOPPPPPPPPSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Guessing there was a typo somewhere on WQNO's. It was probably supposed to be channel 256 or 276. Not sure how forgiving the FCC will be if it turns out to be WQNO's mistake. Normally, these errors are easily corrected, but the FCC also doesn’t normally have translator windows like this.
