HIS Radio is now on 100.5. It is also still broadcasting on 91.1 and 91.9. I notice somewhat of a 5 second delay on 91.1 and 100.5

100.5 is probably running IBOC and the diversity delay.

I am personally looking forward to having a full powered HIS Radio affiliate in the Charleston area. I like them much better than WMHK here in Columbia and really wish that we had a HIS Radio affiliate here as well.

Albeit it marginal, I like WMHK a little better than His Radio - it may simply be because I'm from "old school" radio and I have an admiration for stations who still use their callsign as their name and not just as a legal ID. I can remember in the early 80s when "His Radio" still used "WLFJ - With Love From Jesus". But I do like both and am delighted that His Radio is getting a better signal in Charleston. I wonder if the two translators will go dark -- it would certainly save His Radio some $$$.

HIS has posted a video of them ''flipping the switch'' for the new 100.5.

It would really make no sense to keep those two translators on. I would keep them a couple of weeks to get everyone transitioned over, but after that I'd shut 'em down. No need.

Why shut 'em down? They cost virtually nothing to operate.

I am wondering if they plan to keep them up to broadcast music from one of their HD channels instead.
