Has this station been on the air?

One would think the FCC Field Office in Atlanta would be aware of this situation by now.
Good point. I have always wondered is there a person (or PC attached to the proper test equipment could do this while somebody drives the van around) who monitors OTA stations to insure the technical parts of licenses are maintained? Surely when going to the Gulf they could have noticed the lack of a signal. The FCC can check for public comments logs, why not a "quick" OTA check of the stations on the area, when in town.

You must be kidding. the only think the field agents care about is public file, EAS and tower markings anymore. That's it. I station has been off the air without and STA? Who cares! Just so long as the public file is up to date and they have EAS equipment hooked up.
One has to wonder if she committed perjury on the license renewal application.
Is she even signing these filings - or is someone filing these forms and signing her name. The lady is a successful business owner from all reports: surely, she would not be filing erroneous or willfully falsified statements with a Federal agency.
Haha...not on the air...hasn't been. I'm surprised the amount of STA's hasn't raised a red flag yet.
The FCC app says: "WILLFUL FALSE STATEMENTS ON THIS FORM ARE PUNISHABLE BY FINE AND/OR IMPRISONMENT (U.S. CODE, TITLE 18, SECTION 1001), AND/OR REVOCATION OF ANY STATION LICENSE OR CONSTRUCTION PERMIT (U.S. CODE, TITLE 47, SECTION 312(a)(1)), AND/OR FORFEITURE (U.S. CODE, TITLE 47, SECTION 503)."
Hmmm...

What is there to sell? A metal building on a lot at the end of a dirt road. I cannot see how this property has any value as a broadcast station after being dark as long as it has.

I thought this pig had "great coverage" of Tallahasee, it should be worth, well, it should worth a lot if it has great coverage of Tallahasee, seeing how well Am does there in the first place. <g>
I'd have to sit in a hotel in the heart of Tallahassee and hear the signal myself before I would believe the coverage claim. I'm just not buying it - and I don't see anyone buying it either.
You know...believe it or not...when it was at full power (last time I can remember was about 2004), it actually had amazing coverage for a 10kw daytime AM. I have listened to it 20 miles south of Tallahassee on a good day...but that was rare. It was always solid to the north side of Tallahassee at least. There is not much left to sell now. A station that's been off the air for 4 years, a tower and ground system that needs maintenance, 2 metal buildings, and no equipment (Mr. Nelson sold it all). It is nice land though...
I remember when he sold off excess equipment. At this point, tower maintenance would be tear-it-down-and-start-from-scratch. From what I gather, no one seems to know for sure what is the actual condition of the tower and ground system. This station is a write-off from the sound of it - or the lack of sound from it in this case.

Anybody know if a real estate agent is working with him on the sale? It'd be interesting if someone took an actual tour of the property, and reported back to us.
Might be worth something, might not.

First I've ever heard that Doreen Blood (long suffering Mother of scamming Steven) is a successful business owner. What successful businesses does she own? Judging by the saga of WJEP/WSBX I'm thinking she's NOT.
As for her lovely spawn, Steven Blood, after being convicted in Missouri for fraud in 2011, he dropped the Cowboy Bills shtick, regurgitated Radio El Chongo and then replaced it with A1A Radio. I'm guessing he forgot about Rocket Radio Network.
Lately, he's been posing as a screenwriter and/or businessman. He's now calling himself, Ken Tiki, president of Tiki Time Industries. And, as always, the screenplays and the Tiki Time Industries are completely made up.
He's apparently had nearly 35 Twitter accounts suspended due their being made up entities. And recently, he was caught shilling his phony businesses on the IndieGoGo site - they have now pulled all of his phony campaigns from their funding site.
Momma Doreen should probably take sonny boy to the woodshed. The amount of dough she's dropped on this guy is astounding!
My understanding is that she has done quite nicely in real estate and investing.

That's good. She's gonna need the money to mount a defense when the feds catch up to Stevie.
She will certainly be living in interesting times.
