Calling it a “redistribution of ownership,” the owners of Maui-based Visionary Related Entertainment and their California-based investor/partner Frontier Radio were given approval by the FCC to split up. The Honolulu Star-Bulletin newspaper reports VRE will retain KAOI-AM (1110) & KHEI-FM (107.5) in Kihei, KAOI-FM (95.1) in Wailuku, KDLX-FM (94.3) Makawao and Paauilo’s KNUQ-FM (103.7). Frontier Radio Management has created two new companies to oversee their 12 stations: Ohana Broadcast Co. LLC and Ohana Broadcast Co. II LLC. Ohana keeps four stations in Honolulu and another outside of Honolulu on Oahu, five others on the island of Kauai, one on Molokai and another outside of Hilo. Ohana regional VP Skip Schmidt tells the newspaper there will be no format or personnel changes. Pacific Radio Group, which owns 14 stations in Hawaii, now becomes the largest radio owner on the islands.
