Stations Returning from the Dead

G

gbranch

Recently, Houston has seen the return of 2 stations that have been gone for some time. The stations have returned as internet stations.

http://www.rock101klol.com/ has brought back a heritage rock format that flipped to Spanish in 2004 after a 34 year run as an AOR station. They are even using some of the old Rock 101 sweepers, and have brought back Outlaw Dave's Outlaw Radio.

http://zrockkkzr.com/ has brought back the old Z-Rock format that was on 106.9 in Houston from 1992-1995.

Are there any other dead stations in other markets that have been brought back as internet stations?
 
Earlier this year in Boston, the alternative weekly publication Boston Phoenix sold-off WFNX-101.7 (which was alternative rock, they had purchased the station in 1983; it had been alternative rock under a prior owner for a year before that), but has maintained it as an online stream ever since.

Live announcers are due to start on the webstream next week (October 31st).
