Westchester Country getting Country Station on Thursday

[landtuna]

Poughkeepsie is in Dutchess County- at least a half hour north of Peekskill.

Sorry.....I was thinking of Ossining - home of Sing Sing.

What map are you looking at!? Poughkeepsie is in central Dutchess county, on the other side of Putnam county


EDIT- Think I've got it now. So it's north of central New York and south of Poughkeepsie?

Poughkeepsie is actually on the western edge of Westchester County. Westchester County spans the east-west area immediately north of Harlem. It borders the Hudson River on the west and Connecticut on the east. It's been awhile since I've been there but I think the first city you'd run into after leaving NYC going north would be Yonkers.

The Y-107 model was a nice idea, as the stations had the convenience of a common frequency, but even with synchronization, they had to treat the stations as though they were distinct entities; they were not permitted to overlap, which left a lot of people out.

Thunder 106 broadcasts WKMK on 106.3, with the WTHJ simulcast on 106.5. Those stations DO have overlapping coverage (although as first-adjacents, I thought that wasn't permitted).

But unless a company insists that the number be part of the station nickname, it is not necessary for a simulcast to use the exact same frequency. "The Breeze" is on 107.1 and 99.7, so if Press wanted to reach farther north, that decision isn't contingent on being able to buy only WFAF.
