Nope.

Both transmitters are still in operation. They are GPS synced and fed audio
that's time aligned.

I understand the beat period between them is now measured in hours.....

They have been in constant use since 1936.

In the early 70s I worked at Wang Labs in Tewksbury, about mid point
between the 2 sites.  This was long before I knew about synchronous
transmitters and wondered why WLLH was unlistenable there...all phase-y
and distorted.

Does the Lawrence site still exist?  I'd heard it had been shut off.
