From Tom Taylor's Radio Newsletter:
Chicago-market brokered-ethnic WCFJ/1470 has been taken silent by owner
Newsweb, which will surrender the license to the FCC. Robert Feder says the
station went dark Saturday, with Newsweb Radio President Charley Gross
explaining that âthe station was not profitableâwe are turning in the FCC
license.â Thousand-watt WCFJ Chicago Heights has a demanding technical
array, which requires six towers for its daytime signal and three towers at
night. It uses a total of eight sticks, in the farmland south of Chicago,
serving the Indiana-Illinois state line. In addition to some talk stations,
Fred Eychanerâs Newsweb operates three other ethnic stations in the Windy
City (WSBC/1240, WNDZ/750, WAIT/850). Gross says âthe rest of our stations
are good.â Those include stations near-and-dear to Eychanerâs heart,
progressive talk WCPT-AM/FM (820/92.5).
