WDJZ 1530 Off the Air, Other Stations Audible?

[Matt Boland]

For those of you that might not know....WDJZ 1530 AM in Bridgeport has been off the air for about five weeks. They have apparently received a NAL from the FCC, ordering them to pay $10,000 because of this. Now what I want to know is this; what other stations are on 1530 that I might be able to hear, now that WDJZ is off the air indefinitely?

It's stupid that they got fined for something so stupid. They should go up to Hartford and shut down the pirate station BUSY 103.3

Their program director also got busted for stealing electricity.(at home) Snoop Google News.

Just heard from my supervisor at the station that they are shutting down for good. What a drag.

That sucks bro. They're not gonna try and sell the station?

I was just looking at their WEBsite. Looks like parts of it are "broken"... no live stream, and I'm guessing that the MP3 files of programs they posted there have been taken down, as clicking on any of the links brings up a 404 error. Their stream link still brings up a player page, but it is silent, so they're not even "broadcasting" on the Internet.

Are they truly "deep-sixxed"? Will their fate be the same as the 1590 in the Waterbury area? (Towers knocked down, license deleted.)

Just wondering.

I can take the blame for those "404 Errors". I was the webmaster for the station site (private contractor) and I deleted all that audio from my servers since they were no longer paying for the service.
Real shame - it all went downhill when the owner passed away suddenly almost two or more years ago.
