FM Frequency of the Week: 99.5

Maybe this week we're supposed to list our 99.5 HD2s!
😂...well, that would be 99.5 KPLX HD2 Fort Worth, a simulcast of WBAP 820.

If we're moving on to 99.7, which would be the actual FOTW, then that's University of Tyler's NPR affiliate KVUT Cuney, no signal, because it's silent and awaiting a buyer. In ots place is a very weak KETE Sulphur Bluff, TX, a 3 Angels Broadcasting Network affiliate. Also heard Shreveport's KMJJ sneaking in on occasion. One of the weaker Shreveport stations here, which is how KVUT "fit" in the first place.
 
99.7.....East Tennnessee. Urban and locally owned W259AV (WJBE). It covers most of the market. Being on top of a mountain does amazing things. The original WJBE was owned by the one and only James Brown, and the calls are an homage to that. Before this translator signed on, Nashville talker WWTN Hendersonville could make it in most days.


Retro/other: I worked at a 99.7, WSHW, Frankfort, IN, situated between Frankfort and Kokomo, Indiana. 50000 watts in order to move it away from Indianapolis for WIKS/WZPL. It's been recently sold. It had a good signal throughout Central and parts of Northern Indiana, but of course has been truncated. Owner Vern Kaspar licensed a bunch of translators, several of which he sold.

Wichita, KS is KGHF/Belle Plaine.

Hometown of Parsons, KS is a harder-to-receive KBTN Neosho/Joplin, MO. Tropo at times brought in KZPT/KCMO.
