Thanks for the info Paul. It would seem, though, that moving them would benefit both WYPC and WOUB. When WYPC went on the air WOUB was running 250 watts SH (specified hours only). Now WOUB runs 660 watts days, 1 kw at night, and the two stations balance signal strength at about the Athens/Vinton county line, where both are essentially unlistenable because of the interference they cause each other.

Walker, Jr. Sent: Sunday, February 03, 2008 4:15 PM To: Mailing list for the International Radio Club of America Subject: Re: [IRCA] WYPC A Class D, which is what WYPC is, can remain a Class D if they move to another frequency. however, moving from 1330 to 1280 would be considered a major change and can only be done when the FCC opens the filing window, which wont be for awhile. A Minor changei s 30Khz either way. Theres some rule in there too that if it applies for more night pwoer then it already has, it has to meet the minimum 250.. and that could include building too man ytowers.
