Shreveport market KQHN 107.9 to 97.3

txchipk

The FCC has approved a plan to get KQHN 107.9 back on the air. The changes are just to the table of allotments; all the stations will have to file for the changed facilities...

KQHN will move from a class C2 allocated to 107.9 Oil City LA to 97.3C2 Waskom, TX (on I-20 on the TX/LA border) and use the same tower it was using when it moved into the Shreveport market.

To make way, Cumulus will change the city of license of KRMD-FM 101.1 from Shreveport to Oil City (so Oil City does not lose "service"). Other moves...

KPCH 97.7C1 Dubach: downgrade to C2, still on 97.7
(no loss of service really here -- it never put on its C1 upgrade)
KDBH 97.3C3 Natchitoches: downgrade to a 97.5A
KTBQ 107.7C2 Nacogdoches TX: downgrade to a C3, still on 107.7

LPFM KBLK-FM 97.3 Shreveport will have to find a new frequency.

KTBQ is impacted since the vacant 97.3C2 Longview TX allocation is moving to 107.9. KTBQ will lose 62,000 people in its coverage area -- I assume Cumulus will have to give something to Clear Channel for CC to have consented to the downgrade of KTBQ and allowing for the return of a competitor to its Shreveport cluster...http://hraunfoss.fcc.gov/edocs_public/attachmatch/FCC-05-198A1.txt
 
taken from the FCC Document
Station KQHN will provide a first local service to Waskom and be a significant public benefit to that community translated that means waskom will get their name hidden once a hour in a legal ID....
