SBS Buys KROI for $7.5 million

WPRX in Connecticut used the tongue-twisting "La Puertoriquenissima" for a while. It's now branded "Dinamica 1120 -- Pura Adrenalina."
To a Puertorican, "La Puertoriqueñissima" is easy to say. It rolls off the tongue.
 
Not only Puertorican, I’m Mexican American and I can roll my Rs very easily.
The real issue is that name is harder to write in a Nielson diary in the smaller markets. In the case of markets with large Puerto Rican populations, nearly all, though, are PPM markets.
 
It fit the irreverent "alterado" format, which was less traditional and more gangsta-leaning. SBS is currently something along the same vein, but different, on their HD2 channels with "La Privada".
Which reminds us to keep an eye out for a new HD-2 on 92.1 after the format flip, though quite likely SBS waits until the full launch of the primary format.
 
KROI abruptly went to dead air at 11:56 this morning. Still that way as I type this ten minutes later.🤔🤫
Just to clarify, it's not "dead air", just a dead carrier. The station is broadcasting silence. RDS still displaying "Praise 92.1".

The better question is if Praise is still running on 102.1 HD2 or if it is also silence?
