New LPFM in Mesquite has filed a license to cover.

KSKY has had an 800-watt emergency FM repeater on 92.9 in Dallas for the last 18 years. Because it is an emergency repeater, it is not separately licensed and does not show up in FCC searches

WJN T-AM JAckson, MS and an AM in Nashville use to have a similar fm signal.. WJNT's was WJNT-1
 
Correct. WJNT-FM1 operated under STA for years until they finally got an FM translator. That was interesting proving to the FCC that 1180 Habana Cuba was wiping out our nighttime interference free area. Had one of the FCC inspectors drive up from New Orleans and we spent a full night mapping interference.

We had to move frequencies on WJNT-FM1 twice because of newly licensed LPFM stations. They had protection - WJNT-FM1 had none.

Was it true WJNT 1 could only operate at night too? I remember hearing that

I'm full of so much useless radio knowledge
 
Given the very limited coverage area, and the presence of other 92.9 signals in DFW, perhaps they don't want to confuse listeners. Salem may be content to let listeners find it on their own.

Then what the hell is the point of even having it? I'm sure its costing them a few grand a month to keep it all operating.
