Akron's WNIR-FM (100.1) gets the FCC to rescind its grant of a new translator
Idaho Falls-based Edgewater Broadcasting wanted to sign on a translator in Lorain, Ohio at 100.3 and then sell it for $100,000 to Radio One, which would likely use it to re-broadcast one of its two Cleveland-market AM stations. Edgewater already had approval for the grant, but WNIR owner Media-Com filed for reconsideration by the FCC and urged listeners to write the agency about an “out-of-town company” that would create interference for highly-rated talker WNIR. Its appeal was successful. Now, the FCC has rescinded the grant and won’t allow the translator, after all. As his Plan B, Edgewater’s Clark Parrish proposed a waiver to re-allocate the translator to a new frequency of 99.1. But the FCC gave that a “hard look” and rejected it, too. The FCC letter to Edgewater is here. Today’s Taylor on Radio-Info newsletter says “it looks like Radio One is entitled to re-claim its deposit of $5,000.”
