Mobile Will WNTM find a home on the FM dial?

I wonder if WNTM will find a home on the FM dial. It’s on 99.9-3 but am curious if iHeart has plans in purchasing a translator?

Doubtful. Especially if iHeart likes the sweet money of leasing out 101.1 and their related HD3 on 96.1.

It sucks that they got rid of the digital-only feeds on 107.3, 94.9 and 101.5. Is IHeart that cheap to not pay the royalties of a jukebox that runs itself?

It’s kinda stupid they didn’t put WNTM on a translator like 101.1. Who is listening to “Radio Grace” anyways?

Somebody must be listening to Radio by Grace because they have the money to lease 101.1 and multiple translators across America. When this station in Texas bought Edgewater Broadcasting that called it Freedom Radio FM it expanded its reach big time. I know Edgewater was mainly in the business to sell translators maybe KRBG Radio by Grace is trying to reach the masses.

Also, doesn't 104.9 over in Biloxi carry a lot of the same content that WNTM does, even Uncle Henry?

Yes but Uncle Henry is only local to WNTM.

Radio By Grace owns 101.1 W266CM Mobile. Much like EMF does with iHeart in many markets, they lease out some of their excess translators to commercial operators and in exchange get HD subchannels to feed their signals in others.

Remember when 100.7 was ALMOST a simulcast of 1370 in Pensacola? They couldn't run Rush or any other Premier programs because of I-Heart and 710 in Mobile.
