WJTW/WAJP at one time used a Blaw/Knox freestanding tower.  After years of neglect, it was condemned due to metal fatigue and general disrepair.  The top two sections were removed, and the FM bays placed at the 100 foot level.  Shortly thereafter, a combiner was installed at the Walnut St. tower, and WJTW was moved there, sharing the FM bays with WLLI at the 300 foot level of the WJOL tower.  The 100 foot "stub" at Ruby St. is now leased out to cellular and paging companies!
