Relocation

The Savannah, GA transmitter has been relocated across the state line to Hardeeville, SC. This move increases the overall coverage area of the station (KEC85). The new coverage pattern is slightly to the northeast compared to the old; however, the Jesup, GA transmitter provides a strong signal to the parts of southeastern Georgia which will now be in the KEC85 fringe area. KEC85 now gets a stronger signal to Beaufort, SC; also covered by station WXJ23 (162.475 MHz) transmitting from nearby Green Pond.
