[BC] WATO 1290 Oak Ridge

[Jim Tonne]

There is definite progress in getting WATO 1290 back
on the air in Oak Ridge, Tennessee.  They have a 1 kW
transmitter delivering a carrier into a non-directional
antenna for testing.  Apparently a multi-step process to
restore the signal has begun.  I have heard the test
signal, with modulation, today.  As I understand things
they have to deliver a carrier, can go black, then make
more changes to the facility and finally come on "for
real."  I don't know the time frame.
