More Secret Format Changes Of 2016

A couple weeks ago we rounded up a number of format changes that took place
under the radar. Since that report weve been tipped off to a number of
additional changes.

Shortly after Point Broadcasting closed on its acquisition of Rock 99.1
KXFM Santa Maria CA on August 31, the station dropped its format and is
currently running a jockless/commercial-free version of the Rhythmic Oldies
Old School format it operates on 104.7 KOCP Oxnard and 104.7 KQIE
Redlands/Riverside and a few other stations in Southern California.

Townsquare Media CHR PopCrush 97.1 KKBR Billings MT relaunched in July as
97.1 Kiss-FM.

Mountain Broadcasting debuted Oldies Boomer 106.3 K292GH/KMSO-HD3 Missoula
MT. The station is focusing on the 1960s and promoting one Beatles song per
hour.

Curtis Media Variety Hits 98.3 Jack-FM 1300 WSSG Goldsboro NC moved its
translator to 92.7 W224DD Goldsboro as 92.7 Jack-FM. That allowed sister
News/Talk 1150 WGBR to reclaim the 98.3 W252CL Goldsboro translator that
had rebroadcasted WGBR prior to the launch of Jack in August 2015.

Radio FM Media Sports Fox Sports 1660 KQWB West Fargo ND relaunched as
Bison 1660 as part of a partnership with North Dakota State University.
Jeff Culhane joined the station as Program Director, co-host of an 11am-1pm
show with Jeremy Jorgenson, and play-by-play voice of North Dakota State
Football and Mens Basketball.

Ploener Radio Group Conservative Talk 1370 WFDR Manchester GA launched an
FM translator on 97.3 W247CJ Machester and flipped to Classic Country
Legends 97.3.

Sun Broadcasting Sports 97.3 The Fan 1240 WFWN Fort Myers/1270 WNOG
Naples/97.3 W247AQ Tropical Gulf Acres FL rebranded as Fox Sports FM as
WFWN changed call letters to WFSX.

Deane Brothers Broadcasting AC 97.3 WJDF Orange MA flipped to Classic Rock.

Siga Broadcastings 870 KFJZ Fort Worth TX dropped its brokered South Asian
programming for the BizTalkRadio network.

Finally, two new stations have come on-air with Christmas Music filler.
Radio Beam LLCs 93.3 KEUB Seaside/Astoria OR is carrying the holiday
programming since earlier this month, while William McCutcheons 103.5 KBJX
Mertzon/San Angelo TX is operating as Frosty 103.5.

Four months after launching an FM signal and relaunching as Magic 94.1,
Townsquare Media Urban AC 1410 WNWZ/94.1 W231DD Grand Rapids has moved its
translator to 104.9.

The new 104.9 W285FO signal allows the translator to upgrade from 88w/138m
to 250 watts improving its coverage of the market. The station jumped from
a 0.0 share in the Spring 2016 Nielsen Audio ratings to a 0.8 in the Summer
book following the launch of the FM signal in June.
