Scott Fybush Makes A Mistake (Gasp!)

[Laurence Glavin]

In Scott Fybush's "Northeast Radio Watch" for Monday, May 9th, he stated that WEVF-FM, 90.3 serving Metropolitan Colebrook, NH will SUPPLANT W290BK. Sound the klaxon...both outlets seem to be operating at present. I first noticed the appearance of WEVF's call letters during a regular station ID on NH Public Radio, one that doesn't include most (but not all) translators. (W212AF in Nashua is still on-the-air after seemingly also being SUPPLANTED by a 4-letter-call station, WEVS 88.3; it's never included among the translators when NHPR runs a full list of stations at certain times. Apparently it's "identified" by pulses or something heard only by wombats.) When W290BK first appeared, I thought it remarkable that NHPR had to install a directional antenna way up there. It turned out that there's a station operating on 105.9 in Vermont.

Ha! Too funny.

Out of all the hyperbole and toungue in cheek sentiment in this post the funniest line out of all of them is "Metropolitan Colebrook" .

My family was born and raised in Colebrook, my uncle still frequents the Colebrook House (probably far too regularly) and I can tell you from experience the only thing that even comes close to "metropolitan" in Colebrook is the new Rite Aid.

Colebrook House bears referencing:

It's identified by shifting the carrier in morse code to identify the transmitter.
Wombats , no., engineers, yes.
