FM translators for Valley AM stations

I saw the coordinates to be nearly the same as Ishom but thot 'well maybe it is just further down the hill from the top of the mtn.' like the way KJUG moved down from the top of Blue Ridge.

Click to Transmitter location on KFRR R-I page, it will show a google map ,switch to "Earth" and you can clearly see KFRR is Between KSOF and KSEQ on the same road, zoom in on it, also I made copies of the R-L coverage maps for Valley stations a few years ago and then the map is different than it is now and is the same as KBOS, and etc. so there's some kind of error on the Height.

Unless KHKK complained to the FCC and they were forced down hill recently and they didn't update the coodinates.

KFRR seems to be in the same location as far I remember but radio-locator is drawing the range as though they are on the valley floor.

Ha ha, I was all like, "where the eff is Auckland?"

It's an error, they are putting it 3300 ft lower than they are and the map clearly proves (when you zoom in) that they are with the other stations on Eshom Point, I really don't think they are in the foothills east of Dunlap or Badger, expecailly the fact you can here it in Los Banos and Bakersfield like a line of sight signal.
Auckland is in New Zealand LOL, actually it a tiny town in the foothills east of Orosi.

KEYQ has gotten one. K241CL 96.1 FM.

So thats one less possible. What are the ownership rules on something like that? Could it be sold to any other station that can be clearly heard at the translator sight?
