That is convoluted. No service is provided by a dead carrier.


A "service area" is a place where a signal is receivable. "Service" to
listeners, per the FCC, is to the local community and the community of
license. There is no requirement to give service to all the service area.

Then why do they call it a service area? You must be one of the
current generation of "grownup" who twist words because you are bereft
of substance.
