BBN changes WYFQ-FM calls

Does this mean that Mix Charlotte kinda has one foot in the Grave, and the other on a Banana Peel ? 🍌👻 Are they About to be "Toe Up" within a few weeks ? 🤷

If so, Maybe they aren't gonna "Kick the Bucket,"
as the Bucket has already tried to Kick Them. 😥

Maybe WLNK should just go full on
1110 AM in HD !! 😄 (if not back on 107.9).
 
Another Example of stations 📻 with similar call letters on many different signals (other than BBN & K-Love), is Bott Radio Network, with Christian Teaching heard on many states in the Midwest. 🌻

Some Examples of Bott Radio Call Letters Include: WCRV, KCIV, KSIV, KCVW, KCCV and many others.
 
I recall reading about the history of the network that BBN inherited the calls WYFI on their first station in Norfolk, Virginia, and 'assigned' the meaning of "Where You'll Find Inspiration". When they bought their second station, WHPE in High Point--originally owned by the High Point Enterprise, they 're-assigned' the meaning as "Where His Praises Echo". By the time they bought their third station, the former WXNC in Henderson, they applied for the call letters WYFL with the meaning "Where You'll Find Love" and have largely stuck with requesting available "WYF_" calls and assigning a similar meaning. PBS North Carolina is another example of requesting available sequential call letters, in their case reflecting flagship WUNC-TV with the last letter changing; further down the alphabet indicating the order in which a transmitter was activated (WUNC-TV 1955, WUND-TV 1965, WUNE-TV 1971, et al).

Yeah. I knew both these examples. The question is how they got lucky and no one else had them.

Bible Broadcasting has received a call letter change for their Wadesboro/Charlotte outlet. Their 93.5 WYFQ-FM will become WYHG, effective May 11, 2026.
I suspect 100.9 will take the WYFQ-FM call letters. Where will WLNK end up?

Maybe this is further down in the thread or in the link above, which I haven't read, yet, but, is BBN keeping the same programming on 93.5 as in the past, just changing the callsign?

They ain't goin' on 107.9, that's where 'BT is now. As someone else mentioned in another thread, what's the popularity with Mix up here.
