KSWS Seeks Full-Time 50,000 Watt Power Expansion
KSWS radio in Roswell has filed with the FCC to broadcast full time at 50,000 watts, up from 50,000 watts day and 10,000 at night. Owner John Barnett says the nighttime upgrade will make KSWS a leading station in the Rocky Mountain west, requiring six towers and phased equipment. Roswell would be the smallest U.S. city with a full-time 50,000 watt station. Currently three stations operate on 1020 KC at 50,000 watts: KDKA Pittsburgh, KGBS Los Angeles, and KSWS Roswell.
