News that Station rWATR has been granted full-time privileges and an Increase in power meets with great approval on the part of radio listeners and the enthusiastic reaction to the granting of Water bury's own stations petition by the Federal Communications Commis- sion further indicates in what high regard the station is held. During it's three years on the air, WATR has consistently given public service and it's facilities have been used to aid innumerable worthy causes.
 At the present time there is no full.time night service by any Wa terbury station which can be re- ceived by all listeners. The EGG grant will remedy this situation and make service available to all listen- CTS who own standard radio sets. Many listeners have long complain ed that thereis 4 no local station, which they can receive on their sets, which offers the city full-time night broadcasting service, and they have strongly favored the granting of WATR's application to offer such service.
