At 6:00 A.M. on Thursday, November 1st, 2007, radio history will be made as
WMPM will leave 1270 AM and move to 1090, in the process, the call letters
"WTSB" will remain, for now(I think the WMPM call letters will wind up on
this frequency) One thing is for certain, this will become the most powerful
station in Johnston County with 9,000 watts, which should given them better
coverage, especially toward Raleigh and Goldsboro.
According to the "Smithfield Herald" the programs currently heard on WMPM
will remain on WTSB, the question is, what will happen to 1270 in the coming
months?, Some on another web site suggested going "News/Talk" or trying
a "All-Financial" format simular to WBBR 1130 in New York City.
Whatever takes place, the listeners will benefit from a better signal.
