“Hum” comes to Austin

[Mediafrog+]

This was discussed a few years ago, but appears to be finally happening:

‘HUM’ Comes To Austin With Houston AM’s Expansion | Radio & Television Business Report

A 50-watt facility at the right end of the FM dial, licensed to serve the western communities in the greater Austin area, is being sold. The result? Expanded coverage of a “Bollywood” presentation targeting South Asians is in play.

Has K300DU ever been on the air?

The information in the article about KGOL is incorrect; the station is actually on a STA with 2kw days and 100 watts nights, having lost its previous transmitter site.

I have listened for K300DU, since the original announcement, many times and have never heard it.

There is a "hum" on the right end of the dial already in Austin... Well, sort of...
WXK27 162.400 NOAA Weather Radio makes humming sounds along with the voice.
