WNAP 1110 AM has gone off the air due to the land that the station sits on being sold for a housing development. This was mentioned on Fybush in the weeks NERW Report.

With Praise moving to HD Radio, and WNAP now online-only, I guess the only urban gospel station on regular Philly radio right now is Reach FM's 97.1 translator blasting all of 10 watts.
I really hate to say it, but is anyone gonna miss WNAP 1110? Also, DXingRadio- we also have 100.7FM Philly's Favor but the signal is really bad as WLEV blasts well into Philly. And there's also WTMR 800AM with a really strong signal all over the Del Valley.
ALSO: Good thing I started the aircheck collection of Philly stations. Here's my off air recording of WNAP- which now seems to be off air for quite a while. WNAP 1110 2-24-18 155-205PM : Free Download, Borrow, and Streaming : Internet Archive

Yes, there are those of us who miss WNAP. I enjoy black gospel music and especially the more traditional variety that WNAP often plays.
Just learned that WNAP will not return to the air they have sent their license back to the FCC.
Hate to see a station go off the air, but a 3 tower AM daytimer in 2021, without a FM translator, probably isn't worth rebuilding. It had a pretty tight null to the NW, so if it did come back with a single tower it would probably be under 1,000 watts.
