Yes KVMX is the local 92.1. Keep in mind this thread is speculation and the station in question could be one of several facilities. 92.1 is a rimshot licensed to Placerville, east of Sacramento but it’s transmitter is 3,000’ above the valley so (car) reception around Sacramento is quite good. That being said it’s only 6kw about 45 miles from downtown, so you still need a good antenna.

No, i doubt it. Have you looked at a coverage map?
I know by Google maps,
it's far.... but the coverage map,
as I have learned on this forum -
esp, radio locator could be less than accurate
this station, in my personal opinion, wouldnt be a sacramento market rimshot even on its best day
Especially since it's on 92.1. 92.1 is the frequency of KVMX - one of the stations above in the thread.

And now 103.9 The Fish will become K-Love (or maybe Air 1):
That brings the number of EMF signals in the Sacramento market to six. Seven if you count the 91.9 rimshot from atop Mt St. Helena.

You're right, Michael. I should have said "By My Count". Didn't think the 92.9 made it to Sacramento, and 88.3 is a mish-mash of KCPC and KLVC depending on where you are. There's also a 98.9 in Auburn, which may or may not technically be a part of the Sacramento market. Not sure.

It seems to me that EMF has completely flooded the market already. Why on earth would they want to add more?

I think you meant Middletown, yes?

A lot of those signals are translators. Air1 only has marginal coverage.
Salem got 80 million for their stations sold.Maybe some more fuel for the fire to it being 103.9 for sale?

+LOOKS like 103.9 will be the sacramento the main k love signal with 99,5 changing emf is swapping the klvb calls with 103.9
Which makes since 103.9 has less overlap with 89.7.
I'm assuming that means 99.5 will switch to Air1 format? What happens to the 98.9 Air1 translator that's on the same tower?
La Nueva Vida or turn it off
That 98.9 Clarksville actually has decent coverage. 250 watts at 1,037 feet, albeit directional. I’m sure someone would want that. There is also a CP to change to 99.1 but that would get lots of interference from 99.1 Williams. Not sure what EMF is looking to do there.
