On Monday (Jan. 26), CRN Communications talk WDYT (1220 AM)/Charlotte informed the FCC that it had turned off its transmitter. "Revenues fell below the expense levels," Danny Fontana, a principle in CRN, told the Charlotte Observer. "I couldn't see running in the red."
Fontana, who launched the station three years ago and moved the transmitter from Kings Mountain to Gaston County to improve signal strength in Charlotte, said CRN will continue to look for financing and does not intend to give back the station's license. He also tells the Observer his group is looking at options ranging from selling the station to coming back with a different format.
