But if that deal fell through, is the info in the enclosed link a different deal and CA still wants out?
After you hit the link, cursor down to get particulars.

The buyer got taken on that deal. ::)
No kidding! $600,000?

I remember back in 1997, WHDM-AM in McKenzie, TN, a little 500-watt daytimer, sold for $27,000. That's a little more like it, although I thought the building in which WHDM was located was probably worth at least that much, even without a radio station included in the deal, because the building was located near downtown, making it worth more than it would have been had it been out in the middle of nowhere like many radio station studios are.

Meanwhile on WQSV, Gary Kaye is back on the air there, and they are carrying Ron Jordan's syndicated newscasts. Glad to know that Jordan is not exclusively on WQSV, since I also heard him over WNAH as well.
 
16 stations and growing

You or the stations?????
You can also hear Ron on WHIN as the sports guy. (If only he could pronounce those names ??? just joking. Tune in Thursday's and Friday's at whinradio.com between 7 and 8. Have to get the plugs in.

Yes

Also Mondays Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I'd KILLL for a hockey player named Jack Smith
 
I know the feeling. the first time House asked if i wanted to do the news, I told Koffman, the PD, and he said that wouldn't bother Gerry ---- that Duncan couldn't either. I only did it a couple of times. What's that tell you about me and sports?

Just curious, what are the 16 stations, and how did Ron get a gig like this? He's doing it from his home or something, right? Wasn't he laid off from WSM or something? And is this the same Ron Jordan who used to be on FM 100 in Memphis years ago? Or am I confusing him with Ron Olson? Is that enough questions for one thread? ;D

I'm glad to see that WQSV is doing something like this, rather than trying to do it "in-house," because I seriously doubt that Corky could, or would, be able to pay someone enough to do what Ron is doing for them. Evidently, he is getting Ron's services for free, or at a very reduced rate, otherwise, they wouldn't be carrying him!

Working with Skywatch Traffic

He's doing it from his home or something, right?

Right. World's shortest commute.

Wasn't he laid off from WSM or something?

And WTN, too.

And is this the same Ron Jordan who used to be on FM 100 in Memphis years ago? Or am I confusing him with Ron Olson?

No and No

Is that enough questions for one thread? ;D

Not really

Evidently, he is getting Ron's services for free, or at a very reduced rate, otherwise, they wouldn't be carrying him!

Barter for inventory

Would you settle for Yvan Cournoyer? Or Jean Beliveau? ;D
