Latest interesting applications involving 93.7 and 101.1

Cumulus has just applied to cut 93.7 WPEZ Macon from 100kw to 6kw. It would become a class C3 in the downgrade. I can not find any other applications for other stations that could benefit from the change. I know that our 93.7 translator cant become a full power station from its current location due to 94.1 being too close. Where i stay WPEZ does bleed into the Fan too much so i would get a clearer signal but there has to be more benefit for cumulus for this to happen.

I see the attempt to serve east metro with a translator on 101.1 has ended and the signal has applied to move back to its old site closer Winder. My understading was that it was broadcasting a subchannel of 102.3 and it has to bewithing the signal range of 102.3 and it wasnt. Recnet says WSTR is the primary station so im lost.
 
Could 93.7 move to 93.5? What are the current rules regarding third-adjacents (Dave and Star)? Would this cause issues with J93.3? I know J93.3 is stymied by Dave from moving in any closer as a second adjacent. Could a low-class (A/C2/C3) 93.5 set up on the northeast side?

I haven't noticed any problems among Bull, WSBB, and Project with the same spacing, and yes I know they are grandfathered under the pre-third-adjacent rules.
 
If they applied for a downgrade, it ABSOLUTELY means a change for stations in Atlanta. No one would cut their signal for no reason.
 
The 101.1 translator was in eastern Gwinnett while it was on. It never used the Stone Mountain tower. The stereo pilot was on, but the music was in mono. It's off again today. When it's on, it's stronger driving to Mall of Georgia and weaker driving into the city. They could rent an HD2 or HD3 and use the Stone Mountain tower or something closer to Atlanta. If the days of 102.3 are numbered, with a Praise 102.5 upgrade, they could also buy a worthless AM and use the translator at 101.1. This translator is as strong as 102.3.

My daughter mentioned to me that La Raza is only 4200W@322' HAGL. Probably the second tiniest FM stick in the city after WCLK (6000W@184', going to 400W@1063'). WPZE is only 3000W but has a taller tower. WWLG is only 2150W but taller still.
