Mike,
You know the old KAST 92.9 was sold to Salem in Portland for $$$$ and then they moved it over to 93.1. A BIG cash cow alright. The same is true for 104.5 The Dalles going to Metro Seattle in the near future. KAST FM now is on 99.7 with a much lower power but still covers the area. There seems to be a lot of radio musical chairs these days. Apparently the FCC have loosens the rules as I don't remember that happening 20 years ago. As you mentioned a $200K station moved to a city suddenly is worth $2 million. The last time I checked New NW BCers owned under 100 stations. Their stations are in smaller towns & cities like Anchorage AK and Billings MT. 73, Patrick Patrick Martin KAVT Reception Manager _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: irca@hard-core-dx.com
