Family Stations trades with EMF
August 23, 2018Family Stations, Inc. has traded W249BD (97.7 West View) in exchange for a Florida translator owned by EMF. No money changed hands.
W249BD is licensed to West View but transmits from the tower in Banksville Park across town. Its parent station is WFRJ (88.9 Johnstown). No word what EMF plans to do with it.
I live pretty close to Banksville Park and I have NEVER heard them on the air. I don’t know that they have ever been on the air at any time.
It’s not to say that 97.7 has been on the air. But that’s where the FCC has it located.
I bet $20 it’ll rebroadcast the HD2 of 98.3 which is running air1… or they copuld put the Klove Classics format of 80s 90s and early 2000’s on the HD3 and put that on 97.7
