[BC] Major market FM Short Spacing

[Dave Hultsman]

In the East and on the West Coast,  I seem to recall reading that after WWII there was 500 kHz. spacing in some areas or the spacing was changed to 800 kHz.   Some of these stations did not change frequencies.  Also the east coast from Atlanta to Richmond has many short spaced allocations that have been grandfatered for many years.  I don't know if was changes in rules for frequency spacing or milage seperations. I believe that many of these go back to the pre 1950's.  Also during that time there were many more super powered FM's.
 
Some of you FM historians can probably better chime in on this.
