Re: Could A Noncommercial And Commercial Station Share One Channel Like 6 And 53?
Of course a commercial station could share a subchannel with non-commercial, but not vice versa. It could go either way. They are only sharing spectrum, but each holds its own FCC license. https://www.tvtechnology.com/news/channelsharing-multiple-stations-on-one-channel Its not like sharing a subch...

Re: Could 96.1 flip from sports?
With no sports until (minimum) Memorial Day, is there a chance 96.1 (and other sports stations nationwide) flip from sports to talk or even a music-based format? I don't see it with 96.1; it would take time to grow an audience with a flip and before that could happen, its likely we'll be in footbal...

Re: 99.3 wqan and 92.3 wbnz
Do you know how stupid you sound? The FCC does care about FM. They actually do care whether you've been on the air for much of your license term. Here's some light reading: https://docs.fcc.gov/public/attachments/DA-17-458A1.pdf I also suspect there's more than a handful of stations that will have ...

Re: WCCW AM tower site for sale
Either 1310's license will be returned to the FCC once the land is sold, or we'll see a request to diplex 1310 from AM 580's tower site soon. Not sure why it would make any sense to bother with the latter; AM radio will be almost as fringe a broadcast medium as shortwave in probably 20 more years. ...

Gray(WILX) purchases WLNM-LD
Looks like Gray is growing their brand in Lansing, purchasing Tri-State Christian TV's low power WLNM, Channel 27:

Re: Soccer coming to WMYD 20
I may be wrong, but I wouldn't be surprised if the team was paying for the airtime. I have the impression they might have money to burn.

Interlochen temporarily using WSRJ 105.5
Looks like 105.5 is back on the air, helping Interlochen Public Radio restore its classic music programming to much of the region while WIAA resolves their antenna issues.
