I heard WKPR Kalamazoo on 1440 this morning. I've previously logged WDOW in
nearby Dowagiac but had never yet logged WKPR till now.
I don't count call changes. But I'm not sure what this situation represents.
This info from Wikipedia is the best summary I've found thus far to describe
the situation. Curious for any opinions...with thanks.
WDOW (1440 AM) was a radio station licensed to Dowagiac, Michigan, broadcasting
a sports radio format. According to Michguide.com, Kalamazoo Broadcasting (aka
Kuiper Broadcasting), owner of WKPR AM 1420 Kalamazoo, is paying $80,000 to
Langford Broadcasting as part of an agreement that would take WDOW off the air
permanently and have WKPR move to AM 1440 and increase power in November 2010.
On March 24, 2011, the Federal Communications Commission cancelled WDOW's
license and deleted the call sign from its database.
