As many as the listeners will support.Seriously how many religious sticks can they have in that area this isn't including the translators now. 102.3 WSJL used to be the only one for years it's just laughable and ridiculous
What is not "easy" about saying "yes" to the highest offer and saying no to any lower bids? Any station owner looking to leave the business or sell a station is not going to be concerned about the future format of it.Many stations taking the easy way out and adding to EMF's collection.
Just as in commercial radio, "as many as advertisers will support".As many as the listeners will support.
It's new listeners won't think so.Waste of a signal. And a religious broadcaster is buying 102.3 WAIV.
It's the business of radio we all know. Sadly there's now 8 stations in our area with EMF stuff on it, 5 with the main programming and 3 with their 2nd channel. We're a smaller market though and more noticible then like a big one like LA.What is not "easy" about saying "yes" to the highest offer and saying no to any lower bids?

Remember that almost all in-home listening (over half of all radio listening by adults and more than half for EMF stations) is in-home or at work. It takes a 65 dbu signal to get in-home listening inside a structure. That means about 20% inside of the inner contour of the radio-locator maps. And that means the there is really very little primary signal overlap in cases like what you describe.It's the business of radio we all know.

Like studying a map of their transmitters in our town. They're located in different parts but they seem to fit in like a puzzle. Which why some parts will get multiples of their signals while other parts just get a couple.Remember that almost all in-home listening (over half of all radio listening by adults and more than half for EMF stations) is in-home or at work.

Remember, EMF does not care about covering radio "markets". They want to cover people, and the buy stations that fit together to get as much of the country covered by a 65 dbu signal as possible. In fact, they buy based on population coverage, not markets.
A well maintained tower does not become "weather worn". They are made of rust resistant materials and are regularly inspected and painted.... they now had a TV station and moved the four bay 3kw 70' up the new tower with very limited mono coverage, this was 1962 so that tower is old and weather worn today.
WAIV was not sold to a religious broadcaster. It is expected to be flipping to Conservative Talk.Waste of a signal. And a religious broadcaster is buying 102.3 WAIV.
What's the difference?WAIV was not sold to a religious broadcaster. It is expected to be flipping to Conservative Talk.
There are non-Christian Conservatives. There are liberals who listen to religious programming.What's the difference?
