WQSV-790 silent. Or not?

The Ashland City station filed on February 4th for Special Temporary Authority to remain silent until no later than August 1st. They indicated they were unable to meet financial obligations & were trying to obtain new financing.

That said, the station is currently on the air.

It probably says something that nobody here, myself included, noticed. (I ride past their tower about once a week on the bike trail...) It probably also says something that the Pleasant View newspaper, generally starved for local news & willing to print just about anything that happens in the eastern half of Cheatham County, made no mention.
 
Is that the I-24 Exchange to which you are referring? The South Cheatham Advocate here at the other end of the county is about the same way.

If 'QSV disappeared tomorrow, they would not be missed. My parents, who also live here in Pegram (about a mile away from me), are in 'QSV's prime demographic, and even they don't listen to them. They listen to WSM-AM.
 
Yep, the Exchange.

WQSV actually runs some halfway decent oldies overnight. Signal seems a bit strong though, if you know what I mean...

I would imagine WQSV is one of those stations whose sole means of survival is high-school sports.
 
WQSV is like Forrest Gump's proverbial box of chocolates. You just never know what you are going to get. Any time that you tune in you might get:

oldies
country
bluegrass
gospel
church/religious programming
old-time radio programming
high school/college sports
various public affairs programming, like city council meetings, whatever

Did I miss anything?
 
I haven't run the numbers, but I suspect 810 Murfreesboro and 760 Nashville would make it difficult to impossible to move this station any closer to Nashville.
 
Maybe it was just the studio that they wanted to move. I seem to recall discussion of a move to a west Nashville (Charlotte Avenue) address. At any rate, probably not enough hispanic listeners in Cheatham County to make a go of it, unless they are just day laborers here.
