Monterey's MNTV affiliate is sold to DiyaTV
Mirage Media has sold the license for its MNT affiliate KOTR-LP Monterey-Salinas, Calif. (DMA 125), to DiyaTV for $50,000.
All of the intellectual property, programming and sales has moved to another Monterey LPTV-D held by Mirage, which says viewers will not notice any changes. DiyaTV is purchasing only the license. The KOTR call letters and "My11" moniker goes to Mirage's replacement station.
The sale price is $50,000; terms call for a 10% payment due at signing. The license being sold will need to move from its current digital home of ch. 11. If the digital license can move to chs. 2-6, $50,000 is paid to Mirage Media. If it goes to chs. 7-13, Mirage gets $100,000. A move by DiyaTV to chs. 14-18 will net Mirage an additional $150,000. Should it shift to ch. 19 or higher, Mirage gets $200,000 in additional payments within 90 days of the FCC grant.
Billy Williams is the CEO of Mirage Media, Jeff Chang is president..
