Guys... WHAW moved their toewr a few miles south of it's currently location and is going from 1000 Watts Day Non Directional and 50 Watts night Non directional to 25,000 Watts Day Non Directional and 49 Watts Night Non Directional.
And since they are non direcitonal, they aren't beaming it in one specific direction. Also, from WFHG's site in Bristol, VA to WHAW's site in Weston, WV is 250 miles.. not 120 miles. So, yes, it was a BIG power increase.. and a SMALL tower move.
