After lunch, Mike and I parted ways, and I headed down to the end of Fisher Ave. in East Longmeadow to see WHNP (1600 East Longmeadow), which is located next to the Saga cluster studios for Springfield. The FM bays are a backup for sister station WAQY (102.1), which 1600 spent some time simulcasting in the '90s before switching to a simulcast of Northampton's WHMP (1400). This used to be a four-tower array, but a few years back Saga relinquished the night-time license and dropped the other three towers. (This appears to be the only way one can currently get a new daytimer.)
