W291CC Now Near Exeter, Nh

W291cc-FM 106.1 has moved away from Sanford, Me to a point SW of Exeter, NH. Its directional antenna design seems to be pointing toward Massachusetts as well as NH. I assume it won't belong before it moves again, more southerly and more to the east.

Probably with a frequency change. 95.5 maybe?

It seems to me that WZID would be more of a factor than WFNQ...plus WSKX at 95.3 on Mount( ?) Agamenticus, ME.

So, how is this not a "major change" requiring a filing window? I thought the FCC wasn't allowing these sorts of moves any more.
 
If any part of the new 60 dBu contour overlaps any part of the old 60 dBu contour, and if it's a frequency change of 1, 2, 3, 53 or 54 channels, it's considered a minor change. The FCC will grant them - but if you start trying to string a bunch of minors together (like the one that moved the translator from Cape Ann to Fitchburg last year), they start slowing down the processing so it could take a couple of years for everything to get granted.
 
OK, for those of us who don’t memorize such things could you tell us the format of this and/or what station they are repeating?

For the coordinates 42, 57, 34 N -71, 00, 34 w I get route 111 southwest of Exeter, NH.
