I was driving past Jimmy Carter Blvd. when I flipped past 105.3 and down to 105.1, and WZGA was coming in loud and clear with very minimal static. That's pretty good for a Class A station that's 60 miles away in Helen. 105.3 didn't even have an effect despite its IBOC running.

Don't get attached to WZGA. The good news is the owners (not the LMA partners running it) have filed to increase power to 25,000 watts (C3). The bad news is they are moving it to Hayesville, NC in the process.
If it's just the city of license, they won't have to move the stick. Hayesville is right over the border from Hiawassee. You can hear ZGA there now.

They're moving the stick. It will be between Hayesville and Young Harris close to the state line (but in Georgia if memory serves).
For a power increase from a Class A to a Class C3, the signal should still be fine to the south despite the difference in distance.
