[IRCA] Fwd: [mwcircle] 1510 WMEX
Anyone nearby have any further information on
this? (from Andrew Brade, MW Circle)
best wishes,
Nick
*************************************************
It seems that 1510 WMEX Boston went silent at
2200 GMT on 30th June. I listened to the last 75
minutes of the broadcast via the web stream. The
last show was ?Renegade Radio? presented by John
Pica and Bryan Berner ? normally on from 6-10am,
the show had a special edition from 3-6pm (EDT)
to mark the end of broadcasting. The show
mentioned the silence was due to ?the last day of
the current station ownership?. The WMEX radio
stream will become a Renegade Radio stream, and
after 2200, the station?s web stream put out
Renegade Radio highlights. There was no
announcement ? the programme just ended and was
followed by a few minutes? silence before the highlights show started.
Towards the end of June evening talk programmes
had been replaced with oldies music.
Wikipedia reports that the station lost its
transmitter site, but the station audio in the
final hours did not mention this and posts on
RadioDiscussions.com indicates that a transmitter site is still available.
The FCC web site does not show any change.
