What could possibly go wrong when bidding on a Crazy Ed station? Check out this filing from the FCC web site: KBET(AM)andK276GX_RequestSilentSTA_September2023_Exhibit_filed.pdf
The problem is that very few advertisers want to be on a station that only covers a tiny piece of the market.
So they are limited to local direct accounts that only operate in the signal areas. How many of those are there?
Interesting to see a whole essay for a silent STA. Usually those are one sentence or a paragraph. This is almost as long as War And Peace.
Seems like the buyer would have to basically build it from scratch. Unfortunately the translator is tied to the AM. The K276GX transmitter is still there and it has a permit to move to the Stratosphere. If only it was as easy as moving that transmitter to the Stratosphere, the station would be worth more.

Not sellable market as a commercial radio. Still a market for it with Jesus.
Exactly why he should have just let it go, I hate VCY but he’s not going to do any better.
Only if some other religious broadcaster decides to wade into this mess and bid higher than VCY's bid
EMF technically does not have a full market signal for SFO, KLVS is spotty in large sections of San Francisco Proper.

Still many Religious orgs that would like it.
Whoever buys will have to get full assurance that Crazy Ed, the former owner is going to stop suing everyone.
I don't think anyone can give that assurance. If a tree falls in the forest, chances are Crazy Ed will sue. His license plate number is rumored to be LITAG8.
The big hole in coverage for KDFC is in the Diablo Valley. 92.7 isn't going to help that. If USC waved enough cash at Alpha, 92.1 could theoretically be a possibility.
It's true that the 90.3 signal is anemic anywhere outside San Francisco itself.
Jesus turned water into wine, surely he could turn a class A into a class C1
The problem is that listener support increases with listener age as a general rule. That means that very youth oriented formats have a harder time getting listener support than a station that appeals to those over 40 or over 50 or more.
Or, to state it another way, the younger potential listeners are actually out dancing.
I wish we would have more non-commercial oldies stations
... sounds like a BeeGees song from the late 70's.
