We have something similar here in CT, although not quite as big as that. They 
have multiuple translators, all within their primary coverage areas. Yes, 
plural. Their primary signal, and a full-power repeater station. (Also 
overlapping.) I can hear them on at least 4 or 5 frequencies with a portable. Oh, and 
they want *more*! Not only do they already have one X-lator less than 1/2 mile 
from my house, they have an app for a 100 watter about a mile away from that 
one! Yet you cannot even get a 10 watt LPFM up here. Yeah, there's something 
rotten in Denmark, alright. If they light-up that 100 watter, that will 
obliterate another station that I listen to.
