Translators

WKNE used to be heard on translators W227AW in Peterborough and W255BQ in Claremont. Recently, however, Saga moved the translators into Keene proper and repurposed them to relay the HD2 and HD3 streams of WKNE within the city.

W227AW is now W281AU 104.1 Keene, which relays WKBK.
W255BQ is now W256BJ 99.1 Keene, which relays WKNE-HD2.
W270AH, the former WZID translator in Peterborough, is now W276CB 103.1 Keene, which relays WKNE-HD3.
