Job opening in Nevada City

The posting says KVMR has a CP for a new station in Sac. I'm curious if it's for a translator, or a full-power station. Anyone know?

It's not in Sac. It's 5 KW licensed to Willows, but with pretty decent HAAT. More info here:

It should boom into Chico, but my guess is that it will be a rim-shot at best to Sacramento, with coverage similar to what 107.5 has right now in Sac, since transmitter sites are similar. They're going to have difficulty on 90.5 with 90.3 from Davis, just like they have right now with 89.3 and 89.7. It might be slightly better than 89.5, however, because I doubt KDVS will ever run HD like KQEI does.
