FM translator

In addition to the main station at 1000 kHz, WHNY is relayed by an FM translator to widen its broadcast area and, in this case, allow 24 hours broadcasting of the format. WHNY is a daytime-only station. The FM translator also gives the listener the advantage of FM broadcasting in high fidelity stereo sound.

gollark: I also do this, but:- how often do the search queries contain things you dislike- how hard is it to scroll past it or whatever, given that average queries probably won't bring up much of that
gollark: I do not think search is a significant issue, and the logreading thing can be fixed.
gollark: I mean, you could shunt it to an archive channel via webhook things after however long, but that would have its own issues.
