Doesn’t WCXI have a CP for 15,000 watts? Why would they need authorization? They can go full power right now, then apply for the actual license. Sima and company are just cheap, that’s all. Fuzz I dug this up just for your clarification: WCXI - Special Temporary Authority - June 26, 2019 This autho...

It will be 2025 and WPON will still be testing.

Well it must be 2025 right now as WPON is on the air playing music and I heard a disk jockey as well who stated they're back.

I think WCXI is still on low power from the new site. WPON on the other hand... zilch. If you'll recall from a few posts up that WCXI received authorization to operate at reduced power from the new site just to get moved. Remember their transmitter failed sometime back and the station desperate for...

He had to be one of, if not THE, last of the original anchors from when Fox News first went on the air.

Hannity has also been at Fox since its inception.

I've been noticing lately that we're seeing a lot of periodic tiling on FOX2. Signal seems fine for a while, then there will be a few minutes of intermittent tiling and loss of audio, then it will be OK for a bit. I'm wondering if there could be other things causing interference, that, coupled with...

WCXI is off the air today (September 3, 2019). Therefore, I decided to recheck the expiration dates of authorizations of both WCXI and WPON. First WPON received this authorization on March 11, 2019: "THE LICENSEE RESPECTFULLY REQUESTS AN EXTENSION ITS CURRENT STA (COPY ATTACHED). AT THIS TIME, THE ...

1160 was easily receivable from Ann Arbor when driving through today. It was strong enough to stop the seek.
