MOUNDSVILLE, WV

++ Point of order: I didn't think you could just DO this -- change a non-commercial station (which wouldn't have to go through a bidding war on the construction permit or license as an NCE) to a commercial operation. I always believed NCE stations were treated as a different type of entity by the FCC and that more restrictions were in place on commercial operations. Do you just buy the station/license from the NCE owner and fill out a form? What about frequencies below 92.1 MHz? Mr. Taggart? Bueller? Anyone??

[Tom Taggart]

96.5 was originally assigned as a commercial channel to Moundsville. When Ron (?) King owned it, he operated as a commercial station. Only when EMF bought it was the license changed to non-commercial. So Keymarket is returning the license to the original commercial status.

Thanks! I knew you'd know the answer.

Starting March 1, 2012, I have moved this topic to the Broadcasty Engineering & Computing section of the board, which is probably a better fit. Digests will be broken down by month, so you don't have to scroll through 300 pages in December to read the latest actions.
