Flint Media buying WQLI-FM Meigs

These guys own 101.9, 106.3 and 930 in Bainbridge, right? Meigs is close enough to Bainbridge, I guess, but I've never listened to WQLI there before... signal issues? What format fits in for Bainbridge along with 101.9 and 106.3?
 
Kevin Dowdy (no kin to Toby that I'm aware of) does own those Bainbridge FMs, but 930 (WMGR) is still owned by Dewey Robinson (and Coley Voyles) as far as I know, unless it has been sold recently.
 
WQLI can be heard in Bainbridge, but it's really more of a Pelham/Camilla station. When I moved away 4 years ago, they were running the Citadel's Hits and Favorites (formerly ABC Starstation) format. Fl

Speaking of WMGR, I noticed they are listed as the primary for the 99.3 translator now, but I see no mention of it on their website.
 
Could they move much closer to Bainbridge with WPAP 92.5 only 60 miles away? Might be easier to move it towards Thomasville.
 
With WDDQ to the NE and WPAP to the SW, WQLI is pretty much stuck where it is. That being said, it has great coverage for a class A...and is still running the same satellite hits format with a healthy dose of local programming in the mornings and afternoons (simulcast with WBGE).

WMGR is still owned by Dewey Robinson and not Flint Media.
 
Slightly off topic. What is currently running on the 99.3 translator in Bainbridge. Originally it was WJWV, the GPB radio station from Ft. Gaines. Not long after I moved away, and the next time I was back, it was simulcasting WSEM 1500 (not quite sure how they worked that out legally) with Fox sports, and now Radio-Locator shows WMGR. I don't see any mention of the translator on WMGR's website.
