Getting back to my original question....I understand, both can be permitted to have same call letters since one is AM, the other FM...but I would have thought the FCC would oppose, since both different ownerships. I could see, same call letters, same owner, but is this not confusing for the public sector?
Especially since now a days, lot of people stream radio broadcast. Which is how I discovered WSBB-AM out of Florida, and I live here in Atlanta. I was streaming for Nostalgia radio, and WSBB AM came up. I thought of WSB/Atlanta. It was not until local ads played for Daytona Beach and then, via Radio-Locator, I found it to be a totally different station.
What would be the difference if I owned a TV station with the call letters of WGST?
Different owners..different mediums. One is radio, one TV
Seems to me, it would not be permitted
