I got a dead carrier today on 810 AM. It looks like WEUS out of Orlovista is testing and will be going on the air soon. According to radio locator & the FCC database they will be 10,000 watts directional by day, 400 watts directional by night. I could not find any info on their owners, Star Over Orlando Inc. Anyone know anything about them , and what kind of format they will be? IMHO I would like to see either an oldies or standards station on there. Whatever it will be they better do alot of promoting once their on or else they will be selling snake oils. It is very hard for a stand alone AM to succeed nowadays.

AM 810 WEUS signing on soon?
- Thread starter FrankF
- Start date
The ownership also has gone by "Star Over Orlando Land, LLC" and is based out of Ormond Beach. I found two instances of the corp in the State Of Florida Sunbiz DB online.

Also, an FCCInfo.com post which also offered some more specific information on location, owner, contact info, etc..

No -- everything goes out the Bee Line, because of the Bahamas and WMGG 820.
But Air America may soon have a Tampa affiliate, see the Tampa Bay board.
