Within the past week a new 10-watt translator at Ellsworth, Maine;
W221BO 92.1FM came on the air. The station re-broadcasts commercial
Christian music station WHMX 105.7 Lincoln, ME. It's owned by
Bangor Baptist Church, which also owns Non-commercial Religious station
WHCF 88.5 Bangor.
For 10 watts, it really gets out. I can pick it up down here on Mount Desert Island, over 15 miles by air from Ellsworth. Unfortunately it also trashes my reception of CBC Radio-1 also on 92.1 from Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, which usually blasts across the Gulf of Maine/Bay of Fundy.
