Toledo Radio, Inc, headed by attorney Phil Dombey and partner Dan Dudley, purchased WPFX/107-7 Findlay from BAS Broadcasting (via Clear Channel a day earlier).

WPFX has been dark since the purchase in July. Word is Toledo Radio, Inc has no money to operate the station. Purchased for $1 million.

PM me for more details.

Not quite accurate. Apparently the deal has not closed as the FCC database still lists BAS Broadcasting as the owner. Could be those "money" problems others have speculated about may have some merit.

SHOPPING AROUND: Speaking of radio station ownership, an OMW reader passes along this "station for sale" listing he saw online:

-----

New Listing!
Cleveland, OH - Class B - AM Station
Willing to work on terms for a portion of the sale! New Transmitter. For more information,
contact Beth Griffin via email or call 770-831-8924.

No, we don't know which station this is.

Class B stations licensed to Cleveland include: Good Karma sports WKNR/850, Salem Christian talk/teaching WHKW/1220, Radio Disney's WWMK/1260, Radio One gospel WJMO/1300 and Salem talk WHK/1420.

We'd immediately rule out two on that list.

We're pretty sure Craig Karmazin has no intention of selling WKNR, and we're pretty sure Disney/ABC does not intend to part with the market's Radio Disney station, WWMK.

Salem has sold off some stations lately, though we don't know if they're itching - again - to sell WHK, which has shuttled in and out of their local portfolio since 2001. The company's recent sale strategy seems to be to exit underperforming markets entirely (see: Milwaukee), and we don't think they're leaving Cleveland.

But, who knows?

That leaves Radio One's gospel WJMO/1300 in our list, and we're only not ruling that out because Radio One's overall financial status has been pretty rocky as of late.

But, as long-time friend and colleague Scott Fybush at NorthEast Radio Watch accurately points out to us, for station brokers, a listing for "Cleveland" could cover stations fair afield anywhere in Northeast Ohio.

The station in question could be anywhere in the region. It's a lot like syndicated radio shows and their affiliate lists, which claim small market stations dozens of miles away as "Cleveland" affiliates...
 
Eric the station in the OHIO MEDIA WATCH item is 1460am WABQ,THE FORMER WBKC I talked with Rich about it with you in mind and Beth the broker I talked with and told her you might call her good luck and let me know how things go.
