Dana,
How many stations does Bob own? Jim Barcus told me he had two that
he knew of. What little I know about Bob, he seems like a cool guy. I
would like to meet him sometime!
Scott at WMRO, Gallatin, TN

Yes, the station (both studios and transmitter) is still located there.
I was
there last week finishing the install of a Sine remote control. Bob
Bittner
still owns it. Bob is a great guy who I have known for many years. He
also
owns WJTO in Bath, Maine on 730. The building is now a self storage
facility.

That's a monster 250 watt signal. When the WJIB calls were on the FM
its calls were WCAS (Watertown, Cambridge, Arlington, Somerville).
Before Kaiser/Globe bought it the combination was WXHR (FM) and WTAO
(AM) at Fresh Pond, Cambridge. I seem to remember it being inside or
near the Cambridge Crystals monitoring company.
Long ago and far away I heard it on my car radio in Westfield, MA
(100 miles) when WACE, 730, Chicopee, MA, went off the air. I worked
for WACE. The ITA transmitter wasn't terribly reliable.
