Hi All:
Back in January I reported that WMPO, 1390, Middleport-Pomeroy Ohio had
switched to a rock format and begun to ID as "Q94." I reported the same to
Radio Locator. To my surprise, neither their list nor Barry's noted the change.
While WMPO played AC, all lists continued to report it as Fox Sports.
So here's what happened. WMPO is now //WTHQ, 1030, Point Pleasant. Both ID as
"Q94" because 94.1 is the frequency of WTHQ's flea-powered FM. WMPO is owned by
"Positive Radio of Ohio," while WTHQ is owned by "Big River Radio," but both
companies have the same Blacksburg, VA address. The two AMs are only about 12
miles apart, but WTHQ nulls to the east and northeast, so doesn't get this way
very well, while WMPO gets in here pretty good.
So note that WMPO is AC, as is their FM repeater at 103.7 (which I can also
hear), and is //WTHQ, and the whole group IDs as Q94 FM. It shouldn't have
taken me so long to figure that out.
