Is WFUV using their new antenna tonight?

Driving home from Paramus to Tarrytown tonight, listening to Vin Scelsa, I noticed that the signal seemed a lot stronger than usual on the car radio. When I got home, sure enough, I'm getting a nice, clean stereo signal on the rabbit ears in Tarrytown, whereas a couple of years ago, I couldn't even pick up a listenable mono signal with a Radio Shack 15-2163 antenna I had in Dobbs Ferry.

I haven't seen an official announcement yet; I hope they aren't just testing, and that this is really the permanent signal!<P ID="signature">______________

Seeing FUVs new self-supporter on the apartment building reminded me of the RKO movie openings with the tower on the top of the world. RKO stood for Radio Keith Orpheum.

I've been wondering if they're using the new antenna as well, I'm getting WFUV through 92.3 at times. I haven't checked any other nearby stations to hear if WFUV's coming through there as well, but the signal does seem a lot stronger.<P ID="signature">______________
...in my day, you could tell the stations apart by the music they played!</P>
