Listeners in Central Ohio now have two choices to receive our programming: on our long-time affiliate Columbus 88.1 FM and now on Delaware 101.9 FM. "For many years, Central Ohio listeners have expressed a desire for a stronger signal in northern Franklin County and Delaware County," said Mark Kordic, director of advancement for The PATH®. "The creative blend of teaching, news, and music will provide wonderful resources for families in Delaware County, the fastest growing county in Ohio and 11th fastest growing county in America." Business owners or managers looking to sponsor programming in Central Ohio are encouraged to contact The PATH® for a complimentary underwriting packet of materials.

You can help us spread the word by passing along names and addresses of friends and family members in Delaware County. We would like to provide them with an introductory packet of information, including program schedules and coverage maps. In addition to the eleven affiliate stations of the CDR Radio Network currently operating in Ohio, Indiana, and Kentucky, we are in the process of establishing new affiliate stations in Bellefontaine, Sidney, Greenville, and Logan, Ohio in the coming months. The Bellefontaine station will serve Logan and Hardin County at 93.3 FM, the Greenville station will serve Darke County at 103.7 FM, the Sidney station will cover Shelby County at 98.1 FM, and the Logan station will reach Hocking County at 99.3 FM. "We are looking forward to building relationships with listeners in these new areas and provide Christian programming around the clock," states Paul Gathany, General Manager of the CDR Radio Network.
 
Great... just what LPFM stations were supposed to do... become network affiliates for religious broadcasters that usually swim in money and could buy a "real" radio station if they wanted to...

So, now Delaware is blessed with TWO Inspo stations! I'm so excited I can hardly type!

Funny, INF's main positioning was about how it was Delaware's "ONLY" locally-programmed station, its "HOMETOWN" station.

The few times I tuned in INF over the last few months, I heard solicitations for churches to broadcast their services at much lower rates than the Columbus stations would charge. An omen of what was to come????<P ID="signature">______________

I thought that there was some kind of rule regarding LPFM's acting as satellators. The whole idea for LPFM was originally supposed to be LOCAL ORIGINATION. Seems like the way things are headed, CC and the Religious Right will eventually end up owning every station in the country.
 
Yeah!!! Let s clutter up the dial some more!!!! Yeah!!! Winf has been and always will be a joke! Not too mention it's "58 watts erp" ... Man the FCC and the powers at be need to get their heads out of their ass.

To my knowledge a AM/FM owner can't also own a LPFM also so I assume the airing of CDR Programming is some form of agreement (LMA?) or something. I am not sure. I tuned into today for 5 minutes, sounds like 88.1 ofcourse.

I am not against LPFM's when they are truely local, in fact, I am not against Relgious owned LPFM's if their doing things locally that others (satellite or corporately owned are not doing anywhere)

They get out too well for just 58 watts. I am in NW Columbus and can pick them up well nearly 20 miles away. That doesn't seem Low Power FM to me. That's not local at all. No wonder someone wanted to take over that signal. It's too good to resist.
