WLMV/WTDY towers

WLMV/WTDY towers


[ Up | Prior | Next ]

These five towers, located on South Syene Road in Madison, carry Spanish-language WLMV (1480 Madison, formerly WTDA and long ago WISM) and its expanded-band offspring, talker WTDY (1670 Madison), both belonging to Mid-West Family Stations. The two towers at right are 1480 day; the line of four are 1480 night. I'm not sure which tower 1670 uses, but it has the standard ex-band facilities of 10 kW-D, 1 kW-N ND; 1480 is 5 kW-U DA-2. The self-supporting tower at far right appears to once have also served WISM-FM (98.1 Madison, now WMGN and also a Mid-West Family station).
