You may find some clues in Dick Perry's book "Not Just a Sound: The Story of
WLW." It was written in 1971 and the early chapters do a pretty good job of
discussing some licensing details. I am not sure of the author's original
source of information, but if may serve as one more data-point in your
research. Several months ago, I purchased a copy on-line for less than $20.
ISBN: 0-13-623876-9.
It may also be possible to access some of the old WLW transmitter logs.
They're in existence somewhere. Jim Hawkins may be a useful source.

It was my understanding the it was maintained on site in hopes of WLW being
grant operating power in excess of 50 kW. Many stations had standing
applications for powers greater than 50 kW.
