WQTW and WLSW

Does anyone know if there's a sale pending of WLSW and WQTW?

I'm seeing "St. Pier Group", with a location in New Alexandria, PA. This would be a Renda subsidiary, which is odd, considering that Renda dropped two AM properties in its own home market. The only logical reason for Renda to have a presence there would be if they were picking up WQTW now that its owner has passed on, and possibly WLSW. Can anyone shed some light on this?
 
Monday January 10th 9 a.m. WQTW is Playing Polka Music, the top of the hour ID was WQTW Latrobe Greensburg playing the hits of the fifties sixties and seventies. WLSW is also on this morning playing the same music it was
 
Phil.......There was big power outage in the area yesterday, that caused WLSW to be off the air until this morning. The last week there has also been internet problems that feed the WLSW signal to WQTW, so they have been running their own automation system which includes lots of Polka's lol. Thanks.
 
I could never understand why an area like western Pennsylvania could not support a full time polka radio station. Chicago has at least three of them. Thanks to the cold weather and the fact its January WQTW'S Daytime signal is good here in the North Hills. I enjoy the Polkas.

I agree. I think an AM like WQTW or another that's similar, could def. support a full time polka format. Chicago,Buffalo,Cleveland,Pittsburgh are a few of the big city's & metro-area's that have a big polka music audience.
 
1970 to 1974 WZUM 1590 Played Polka's from 6am to 10 am,They had listeners and sponsors. Hosted by Jimmy Pol assisted by Larry Allen. It was very successful. I remember one morning being in the North Huntington Township Municipal Building garage and it was on the radio.
