Curtains For Main-FM?

I read somewhere that 96.5 wants to move to 105.1 and increase power. Full powers take precedence over LP's.

Wonder if the folks at WNOW will have anything to say about this...

Why would they allow 2 stations so close together, with one broadcasting from a Gaston Co. tower and the other from Asheville? I currently receive 105.3 WNOW with rabbit ears hear in Greenville, SC, including the HD version. But not really a station I listen to.

You might have heard about 96.7 in Greenville, SC, which is part of this...it would in turn move to 104.9 FM here if WQNS 104.9 moved to 105.1.

I was hoping that's what you meant. So will WQNS stay on Chambers Mountain? There seems to be a lot of equipment up there and maybe they could benefit from having some of that taken off.

What about WCCP 104.9 in Clemson?

The last time I went to Greenville, SC (been awhile), they have a College or University Station on 97.3 MHz. Being a listener of WKBC-FM, I listened to it non-stop from Charlotte, NC all the way to the outskirts of Greenville. Since my Destination was actually Anderson, SC, I was amazed to find that WKBC FM ''came back'' once I left Greenville behind on my way to Anderson. I had an after-market Sony Tuner for my Car that had 8dbi Sensitivity, and I couldn't believe I was hearing 97.3 WKBC again!

In addition to that, I would like to point out that currently Charlotte, NC has some Low Power Religious Station on 88.3 MHz. I wish it would just shut down already. In my part of Charlotte, the Boiling Springs (NC) Station on 88.3 is much more interesting and often over-powers it. They once played a Long-Lost Hit called ''Walking on a Thin Line'' From Huey Lewis. I haven't heard that song on Terrestrial Radio in a long, long time. Refreshing.. Steve...

I didn't read the article since the Citizen-Times charges you to read if you go over the limit.

You can view up to 30 articles before they charge you. That said, I think it is ridiculous that newspapers, the Charlotte Observer included, are doing this (charging to view articles).

I read it. But I've always been told ten, so I read as many as possible at home, and at each library.

The first time I visited the site it did not say anything. From a second computer, I visited the site and the countdown started and it said I could view the next 30 articles before I had to sign up for a subscription. Steve.
