It was supposed to be September 1 of last year, except that the FCC suspended that deadline in October 2014, saying that LPTV stations ...
... "are a source of diverse and local programming for viewers, especially in rural and remote locations."
The Commission has set no new deadline for the low-power analog shutdown and is allegedly researching the potential impact of the incentive auction and the repacking process on LPTV and TV translator stations.
This old school R&B format is the original format they launched with on OLD SCHOOL 99.3. They quickly switched over to classic hip hop the same time or a week before BOOM 102.9 and OG 97.9 came on air.
This old school R&B format on 87.7 is what Atlanta has been missing Urban wise. KISS 104.1 once played all old school R&B, but they started adding newer music and now they've added classic hip hop to keep listeners from BOOM and OG.
It's a bit weird they are playing the drops from 99.3. The TOH id's as WTBS, Channel 6, Old School 87.7. Any chance of Hegwood placing OLD SCHOOL on 101.1 FM? That signal has a permit to move closer to Atlanta off Briarcliff.
I would vehemently disagree that 87.7 has NO license. According to fcc.gov they clearly are licensed. Now whether they are operating according to their license is another story. 3000 watts, my backside. Of course, it IS on a tall TV tower unlike, say, a class A FM. And like an FM translator, but 3000W and not 250W.
But how many times have we pointed out that some class D AM daytimer left their day signal on all night?
