Is it true that the three Hattiesburg stations owned by Circuit Broadcasting are off the air? The three stations are 92.1 WJMG, 93.1 WGDQ and AM WORV. Circuit was operated by Vernon C. Floyd, whom I just found out passed away recently.

Hattiesburg stations off air?

Met Mr. Floyd about a decade ago -- which from the story below would have made him about 81 at that time. Interesting fellow.

WJMG and WGDQ are back on - not sure about WORV. The stations are being transferred to a relative of Mr. Floyd who is sorting out the technical and legal issues.
WORV? All the way up on 1580? Let *that* one sleep peacefully. Pay attention to the FMs or, at least get a translator for the AM.
RIP Mr. Floyd.

WORV has been off the air the last several times I've been through the area. The big signal of 890 AM in Laurel was also off the air but the FM translator was broadcasting illegally. 950 WHSY was also off the air for a long time, but the last time I drove through it was back, but the signal was weak.
