FOR SALE: IBOC-HOBBLED FORMER INDUSTRY GIANT, MISMANAGED FOR YEARS BY RADIO'S WORST COMPANY! SELLER ANXIOUS. MAKE OFFER.
The first commercial broadcast station in the USA, historic (formerly) 50kw KDKA, now offered to qualified buyer. Heritage dial position, hard-working, long-suffering staff. Currently being slapped mercilessly by upstart suburban FM talker, but has great potential.
DISCLAIMER: Station is operating on perpetual STAs because of current owner's insane obsession with failed HD-AM Radio, so combination of reduced 35kw local coverage (forced by Franklin antenna's inability to work well with IBOC) compromised by HD self-interference, and thunderous nighttime first-adjacent interference from co-owned WBZ-HD Boston, mean potential buyers will enjoy the unbeatable combination of highest-possible utility bills with worst possible coverage.
But: 37 actual HD-AM listeners are lovin' those colon-blow shows in pristine IBOC! Meaning, they must live within 10 miles or so of the tower.
Don't let this great opportunity get away! Call the broker today!
