| 説明 | Here lie (top to bottom) the two towers of WNEW/1130am, the two concrete bases of WLWL/1100, and almost noting of the concrete base on which stood the easternmost tower of the three that once radiated WAAT/970am.One can still see the umbrellas that once crowned WNEW's towers, protruding from the water. This was WNEW's facility from 1940 to 1966. Originally 5kw, it went up to 50kw in 1949, and then directional only at night sometime after that. (Details here.)WLWL was a station owned and operated by the Paulist Fathers in New York. The station began by transmitting out of the Father's St. Paul the Apostle church on 9th Avenue in midtown, eventually moving to this two-tower site on Belleville Pike in New Jersey. The two towers most likely held aloft a "T" antenna that radiated from a line rising up from a midpoint on the ground. The base for that is still there. One of the bases is in shadow, but easy to see. The station operated on several frequencies, the last of which was 1100am. It went dark in the late 1930s. At the very bottom of this shot, barely visible, are the apparent remains, or at least a footprint, of the eastern tower of three that belonged to WAAT/970am, then licensed to Newark. That license is now WNYM/970 Hackensack, with a 3-tower transmitter in that city. WAAT was 5kw full time, and had to move when plans were made for the west spur of the New Jersey Turnpike, which paved over the western end of the three-tower array. |
