Indy too although the 97.1 (Hank) is Shelbyville - Indianapolis . . . Or "Shoobydoo" as they call it during TOH ID.
Scott, since I have your attention - can 97.1 *legally* give the TOH LID as "97.1 W-L-H-K Shoobydoo - Indianapolis?" I checked my maps and I don't see a Shoobydoo. They even say something (even silliar than that) after the ID, like "I like Hank" or "all my ex's live in Shelbyville." I realize that they are trying to be funny - but what scares me is that they must be thinking that the FCC is too busy to go after something trivial, like purposefully butchering a town name. It was funny the first time or too but years later, not so much. ;) 73, Dave PS: I'm not on any NRC list.

"Frank FM" is a trademarked name belonging to Nassau Broadcasting, and they own no stations on either 1310 or 97.1. What's more, I can't find even a single instance of a co-owned 1310/97.1 pair anywhere in the US or Canada. Only a couple of 97.1s even share a market with a 1310 (Dallas, most notably) - and they're competitors, in each case. I wonder if this is someone's hobby Part 15 station, perhaps running on both AM and FM from somewhere relatively close to John? s _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list [email protected] http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: [email protected]
