FCC Applications in New Orleans

[Josh]

a couple of New Orleans stations have pending FCC applications:

WYLD-FM-License to Cover
WQUE-FM-License Modification

Looks to me as if WYLD is upping their power<P ID="signature">______________

WYLD is just changing towers. They'll be 82 feet higher
at the new site but drop from C1 to C0.

The two applications for WQUE was the current application to fix records at the FCC dealing with the antenna QUE broadcasts with (They had to redo beam tilt and ERP in the Horizontal field). All kind of paperwork for a slight error in calculations. The other was to deal with the backup transmitter QUE has.
A problem just like this happened at WCKW/WDVW who was off on the coordinates of the tower. They had to file a CP to change that information in the FCC database for a few feet? (I think it was 100 or 200 feet) even though the tower never moved.

Last I looked, a C1 going to C0 is an upgrade...not a drop!

You're right. I must have been smoking something funny
when I typed that. They'll get another 6.83 miles of
protection on their signal with the upgrade. Not sure
that it will make a huge difference.
