WCMA - any word???

Wyatt,

WCMA returned to the air sometime last year with a Black Gospel format. They are, or was, 50Kw days with only a few at night. However, I heard them loud and clear for a couple nights in a row, so they apparently left things running full throttle :) They are operated by the World Cultural Ministry Alliance, and have a website, although I can't remember it.

How is things going with American Sunrise Radio? I was a former affiliate but had to take my station off the air (for a while) in December.

Just curious if there is any news about the old 1560 in Daleville?

It is dark. MW-50 has fried tubes. Lots of money to replace.
I believe the last folks running it have "left the building"
 
The TOPS Ministry Group, run by the Rev Al Sharpton's brother is still running WCMA radio station in Daleville, AL and have not left the building as you falsely claim.

Is your false claims a racial attack on the TOPS ministry or any attempt to discredit them? Why would you make such false statements about a minority ministry that truly helps to serve ordinary people?


One of the 4cx35000 tubes is being reconditioned, and the nighttime power CP is being built out, and the station has an FCC STA on file to do so. Since when has this ever been an issue?

The Harris Tubes in the MW50B series are not all fried out as you again falsely claim. Where did you get this false info from and why would you say these things online without contacting the ministry first? Perhaps you would like to talk to Rev Al Sharpton's brother, Pastor Glasgow directly before you spread false statements about a minority ministry online. You can email Pastor Glasgow at [email protected]

Would you care to provide your name and number so we can call and inquire as to why you made these false statements about a minority ministry online?
 
To AM Radio Guy, Your station has a great sound quality. ;)  I've been able to get it, off and on, as of late.  This station's reach is pretty awesome and big indeed.  It's not often that I can get a 50,000 watt station from Southeast Alabama, here in the Black Belt area.  Kudos to your staff and engineers for the fine work they're doing. ;)

R.D.P. <><

P.S. Hope your station will someday be able to rebroadcast on the FM side, so that you can expand your reach and touch more lives with the wonderful life changing Gospel of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

??? Where'd that all come from?

If you have information to the contrary, feel free to share it--but I'd hold back on those wild claims of 'racial attack' because of that alleged misinformation. Especially considering its your first post--you know what they say about first impressions. And assumptions.
 
For the record, the Wattcher didn't say all the tubes were fried, and he said he believed the people have left the building, NOT that he was sure they had. Secondly, I do not see any type of religious or racial discrimination in his post. I myself am a Christian and see nothing wrong with what he said.

Plus, this board is not one of hostility. We are a happy people, and respect each others' posts. AM Radio Guy, I noticed this is your first post here on Radio Info, and hope you keep on posting - just don't overreact about a simple post. :D

The Wattcher responds:

The only attack I see here is coming from you. I don't play cards.

Here is a FACT:

Exhibit 38


WCMA STA REQUEST JULY 2009 TO BUILDOUT CP

WE REQUEST AN 90 DAY STA FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS: MAINTENANCE ON HARRIS 50KW TRANSMITTER; BUILD OUT OF THE CONSTRUCTION PERMIT ISSUED TO WCMA FILE NO:BP-20071115AAW CDBS APPLICATION ID NO.:1218617 WHICH AUTHORIZES WCMA NIGHTTIME POWER. WE BELIEVE TAKING THE STATION OFF THE AIR DURING THIS TIME WILL ALLOW OUR ENGINEERS TO SAFELY ADD AND TEST THE NIGHTTIME POWER COMPONENTS ALONG WITH THE EXISTING EQUIPMENT TO ENSURE ACCURATE BROADCAST MEASUREMENTS IN COMPLIANCE WITH FCC REGULATIONS TO FILE A LICENSE TO COVER.


The above STA was filed July 2009 and never granted by the FCC. Even if it were, it would be EXPIRED because an STA is only good for 90 days. See for yourself:

https://licensing.fcc.gov/cgi-bin/w...xt=25&appn=101323211&formid=911&fac_num=48759

OK..... "fried tube" instead of tubes. You yourself state that a 4CX35000 tube is being reconditioned.

An engineer friend told me he was contacted about buying some of the studio and transmitter control equipment.
The equipment having been removed from the premises prompted my "left the building" statement.

Wyatt Cox asked a question and I simply answered.

Maybe you would like to provide your name and number?
