Re: [IRCA] [mwdx] 1560 NYC off

[Lawrence Stoler <lstoler99@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

WQXR became WQEW on Dec. 2, 1992 and the standards format lasted until the
end of 1998.


ABC Disney entered into an eight year local marketing agreement (LMA where
Radio Disney would be put on that 50,000 watt signal and the Times would
handle the license, the log requirements and make sure the programming was
heard.  This continued until Disney took over running the facility in 2007.


  They paid $40 million to purchase that signal.  Obviously today, that
station isn't worth that much.


 I think the price Family Radio paid to buy WQEW was $12 million.

I know they were WQXR until sometime in the (early?) 90s then became WQEW
with a standards format until Radio Disney bought them. Ms
