The other station was WGUN which had until the late '80's or ear;y '90's a Westinghouse 50 kW. AM transmitter.

>>At night I don't think they have that great of a signal when I'm
driving outside of atlanta in SC, NC, AL, FL but that's probably all
the interference since all the peanut whistles stay on all night these
days.
That probably has more to do with the crappy soil conductivity than
anything else. The further south in Georgia you go, the worse it gets.
An owner I know down in south Georgia dug out a large pit, laid the
radials and built the tower, then flooded it, making his tower stand in
the middle of a pond. I can here WSB up here near Louisville pretty
good on the nights that WJR doesn't beat it to death.
>>At one time I thought WSB or some atlanta station had an old western
electric transmitter back in the late 80's it was still there. Maybe
that was another station.
You may have been thinking about WHAS. Photos of the transmitter site
are at www.oldradio.com. Barry's site.
