POWER OF TWO STATIONS CUT IN HALF
The licensed broadcasting power of Station KMO, of Seattle, Wash., and Station WRAW, of Reading, Pa., was cut in half without a hearing by the Federal Radio Commission on July 16th because the actual capacities of the transmitters do not equal the output previously licensed.
Station KMO was licensed for 500 watts at night and 1,000 watts during the day, but the new permit limits the power of the station to 500 watts since its transmitter is so rated. Station WRAW, which was licensed for 100 watts, is cut to 50 watts on the same basis.,
Station WRAW has an appeal pending in the District of Columbia Court of Appeals from a decision of the Commission deny¬ ing it authority to increase its power to 500 watts and operate full time.
