The biggest problem here - the Cleveland metro area has grown towards the southwest, into parts of Medina County that are mostly in the null of 1220's pattern. This, presumably, is due to the protection of the Mexican operations you note in your original message. Yes, and a change in site to accommodate the change in Cleveland's metro area would undoubtedly result in a severe ratcheting of the station's power. Perhaps to 25 kW. Salem's "forced move" of its KFAX in S.F. would result in ratcheting to about 40 kW if Salem doesn't get a waiver. And, the move is well within the radius which is supposed to qualify an "in kind" move of an existing array. Salem is proposing retaining 50 kW, but with slight array parameter changes which somewhat mitigate the potential interference to several CP'd stations in Idaho and Nevada. WOR met the same fate on its forced move, and its new pattern will provide better protection to a Canadian station which no longer exists (moved to FM), but remains "notified" on 710. |
