Are there any IT guys who can give WCCP a hand

sometime before football season? They get worse every day instead of better. Yesterday morning I got in my car and had an excellent signal in the Greenwood area. Turned out to be 105.5 - "The Bridge" in Charleston. Got to hear one Beatles song before driving a couple of miles toward Greenville and the WCCP static messed up their signal. Today, I think 3 stations were coming in at the same time with the Roar static being dominant... but that could mean progress if they come in better than Charleston.

They need a new younger hamster to turn the wheel that powers the station.

You have to hold one hand on the radio and one hand raised out of your window. Keep moving it around until you hit something.

something so if you are actually IN Clemson you can get it? I can't seem to pick it up in Sptbg at all. Let's just say it seems to be a very prolonged transition.

The FCC gave approval to change frequencies but not to power up? With Charleston reaching Greenwood and WCCP getting mote wattage, what will happen to people in between who get both at the same time?
