We were driving back to Broward County from Ocala today & I noticed that WAFC 590 Clewiston (and its 250w 100.5 FM) is not Spanish Radio Fiesta, but is running Christmas music in English from something called The Christmas Channel.

A flip in the works? (WAFC-FM 106.1 Okeechobee did not flip, and I believe it was the same R Fiesta Spanish programming; likely 106.1 has a workable signal in Clewiston, across the Lake.)

I am posting this to the Tampa board too, because for years WAFC 590 had a CP to move to Cape Coral---is that still kosher? (100.5 would be fine serving Clewiston.)

WAFC-AM 590 is showing in the FCC database as having an active application to change COL to Cape Coral with 5kw-U, DA-1 using 4-towers. The previous CP has long since expired.
 
Interesting. During my listening, a female voice said something like "Welcome home," which *could* mean a return to country music on Dec 26, or maybe classic country if a move to Cape Coral comes to pass. I think 590 has been Regional Mexican the last 8 years or so. I do think there may be a country "void" there for now, as 1570/100.9 Okeechobee doesn't serve Clewiston well for 24 hours. But don't read into my post....just a thought.

I was listening this morning and heard a promo for super oldies coming after Christmas....
 
Scott Shannon's TOC is the after-Christmas flip. One of the owners is a good friend and he says building out the 20-year old proposal to move to Cape Coral is unlikely. Too bad. I'd love the TOC to be back over on this side of the state.
 
For some reason, there is an identically named thread about WAFC on the Tampa board, too.. Confusing.
