It doesn't.

FWIW, one possible method of gauging relative listenership / interest in a K-Love station is to wait until one of their fund drives. They often have a function on their website at that time that allows you to punch in a zip code, and see what percentage "funded" that ZIP code is (by using local stations where applicable, and internet streaming for the rest of the ZIPs). Granted, this may not be a completely accurate measure. But, hypothetically, it seems like it would better than nothing as a gauge of local interest in K-Love. I would guess the easiest way to make sure the right numbers come up would be to use a ZIP either in the COL or from Marion County (since they claim it as the "Indianapolis" affiliate).
 
In Fall '05 WIKL tied for #32 with a 0.2

There is no WAY FM station in Indy. Is one coming?

Is Theresa Ross one of the personalities on WAY FM? Indianapolis listeners would remember her.

Last I'd read Theresa was at Z 88.3 Orlando.

Jeff Brown is PD and AM drive for Way Nashville.

Different person. Ross was with Way West Palm Beach at their launch. Romano was with the late great RX 107 Chattanooga.

She left Indy for West Palm Beach - WAYFM, then moved to Orlando were her and her husband was on air with Z88 but she left late last year (or forced out). They started going "Song/Salem" and hiding Christ...don't know if that had anything to do with it but she left right when they started changing to an "Orlando" station...weird for a non-com to do.

Now, who knows where she is? I heard she was still in Florida but Z won't say and can't find her on Google. She is a great gal.

They did? I listen probably four or five days a week and haven't noticed that.

I don't understand that sentence, either.

For example, they've always been an "Orlando" station...at least as far as I know.
