Dude...there are many stations in America transmitting on 99.7. It'll be OK.

The one you're talking about is just outside of Ashland. It's not going to be a concern.

I retract my earlier concern. The initial Google Map search plopped this right down in metro Louisville. I got the information about this being in Louisville direct from Radioandrecords. Someone there must have gotten it wrong. I should have looked up the transaction myself.

Thanks for correcting me Greg.

BTW, I don't really care; I was just curious as it appeared a 3kW station had a CP right in the middle of WDLX's city grade signal.

Ha. No problem. I probably didn't have to be such a jerk about it. Sorry dude.
