I actually missed them going off the air this evening. As of a half hour 
ago  WRNJ was on top with a couple of other underneath.  CX aren't great 
tonight with some regional TStorm activity.  Also a big het on 1512.

It seems that 1510 WMEX Boston went silent at 2200 GMT on 30th June. I 
listened to the last 75 minutes of the broadcast via the web stream. The 
last show was “Renegade Radio” presented by John Pica and Bryan Berner – 
normally on from 6-10am, the show had a special edition from 3-6pm (EDT) 
to mark the end of broadcasting. The show mentioned the silence was due 
to “the last day of the current station ownership”. The WMEX radio 
stream will become a Renegade Radio stream, and after 2200, the 
station’s web stream put out Renegade Radio highlights. There was no 
announcement – the programme just ended and was followed by a few 
minutes’ silence before the highlights show started.





Towards the end of June evening talk programmes had been replaced with 
oldies music.




Wikipedia reports that the station lost its transmitter site, but the 
station audio in the final hours did not mention this and posts on 
RadioDiscussions.com indicates that a transmitter site is still 
available.




The FCC web site does not show any change.

It seems that 1510 WMEX Boston went silent at 
2200 GMT on 30th June. I listened to the last 75 
minutes of the broadcast via the web stream. The 
last show was “Renegade Radio” presented by John 
Pica and Bryan Berner – normally on from 6-10am, 
the show had a special edition from 3-6pm (EDT) 
to mark the end of broadcasting. The show 
mentioned the silence was due to “the last day of 
the current station ownership”. The WMEX radio 
stream will become a Renegade Radio stream, and 
after 2200, the station’s web stream put out 
Renegade Radio highlights. There was no 
announcement – the programme just ended and was 
followed by a few minutes’ silence before the highlights show started.
