 Valentine was able to find a “gray area” at 105.5, at sufficient distance from WDHA in Morristown, New Jersey as to avoid short-spacing with that co-channel station.When Valentine ran short of funds to complete building the station, he partnered with Richard Novik, owner of WPUT (1510 AM) in Brewster, New York.Novik had always wanted an FM station to accompany WPUT, but was unable to find one until Valentine found the “gray area” at 105.5; Novik filed a competing application for that frequency, but the CP was awarded to Valentine.
