Thank you, Chris, for the warm welcome and kudos, and for providing the links (I'll delve into those posthaste, to be sure I'm following WP rules and guidelines going forward.) I'm slowly finding my way around as an editor, having been a WP user for several years. I have a strong interest in radio/TV broadcasting, among other things (I'm a geographer, by trade, hence the username), and I'll likely be spending quite a bit of time improving radio station & TV station pages, largely in my home state of PA at first. I am considering joining the WikiProject Radio Stations. Thanks again, I appreciate your time. Cheers! Pageographer 04:59, 4 August 2014 (UTC)

“Short-spacing on NCE FM subband below 91.5 edit
I deleted your sections on WETA (FM) & WHYY-FM about short-spacing because 73.207 doesn’t apply to them. That rule only applies to the commercial subband of 92.1-107.9, & the 3 NCE subband frequencies which are adjacent to them, namely 91.5-91.9. The equivalent rule for the rest of the NCE subband is 73.509. Hope that helps! Stereorock (talk) 01:47, 5 April 2023 (UTC)
- Interesting, I wasn't aware of this. So, according to §73.509, in the case of two co-channel stations, if the 60dBu contour of one station overlaps the 40dBu contour of the other, they are short spaced. Finding this information online is probably going to be difficult, but in this case, it might be available in an engineering study if either WETA or WHYY performed such a study to alter their facilities (ERP, HAAT and/or tx location). I'll have to look through the years of filings for these two stations and see if I can find something to use as a cited source that would confirm (or not) that they are short spaced.
- Thank you for pointing this out to me.
