I posted in the San Francisco board about if KTRB was still planning its move to San Francisco. In this board My question is if its replacement station, KPMP-840 ever going to get built or started? It's been 3 years since I heard about this and nothing has happened? Anyone know the status of "KPMP-840"?

The construction permit runs out in May of 2006. It must be built by then or they will lose the CP.

...Although, if construction is in progress (which, for the most part, it is), then the CP can and will be extended. Pappas Radio is progressing with the construction of the new KTRB sites in the Bay Area (daytime near Novato in the Northbay, and nighttime in the hills above Pleasanton in the Eastbay).
It doesn't take an awful long time to get the towers up and the transmitter running these days. The biggest delays are in the paperwork and bureaucratic wranglings:

Expect the legendary KTRB call letters to move to 840 once everything is ready to go, however.
