Why does Coventry High School only broadcast from 2 pm to 10 pm?

Answer from http://www.fybush.com/NERW/2005/051219/nerw.html

In other news from around the Bay State, WEEI (850) has named former NECN sportscaster Mike Adams as the permanent replacement for Ted Sarandis in the 7-midnight shift. Adams has been filling in on the shift for several months now, and the position became permanent after a stunt last week in which Adams "locked himself in the studio," saying he wouldn't come out until he got the gig. (An old one? Yes, but well-enough staged, apparently, to get the listeners calling and e-mailing PD Jason Wolfe, who made "Planet Mikey" official after about four hours of the stunt.)

*A RHODE ISLAND high school has settled the dispute over its FM license. Coventry High School's WCVY (91.5) had its license challenged by a group called "Educational Radio for the Public of the New Millennium," under a provision which can force noncommercial stations to share time on their frequency if they broadcast for less than 12 hours a day.

Many school stations, facing similar challenges, have installed automation and gone to a 24-hour schedule. Coventry, however, decided to settle - and so WCVY will be limited to operating from 2-10 PM on school days, with "Educational Radio" (which we believe is a religious broadcaster, the name notwithstanding) operating on 91.5 the remainder of the day during the school session, and all day on weekends and school holidays.

The new 91.5 signal, licensed to East Greenwich, will operate with 100 watts from 48 meters above average terrain.
