Re: [IRCA] [NRC-AM] QUICK TRIP

["Paul B. Walker, Jr." <walkerbroadcasting@xxxxxxxxx>]

810 WEUS is owned by "Star Over Orlando, Inc" which is headed by Carl Como
Tutera. It is the only station Mr Tutera owns now. He previous owned an FM
in the Daytona market and just recently sold 760 in Tequesta, Florida.

What you heard was "Scott Shannon's True Oldies Channel"

1560 was not simulcasting 810, it was merely carrying the same programming.
WINT is owned by Cumulus Broadcastingand is a 5KW non Directional daytimer

Highlands/Cashiers, NC does have a LOCAL FM.. "Soft and Easy Favorites,
104.5 WHLC" www.whlc.com

Cool Country 1590 WABV Abbeville, SC
(about 2 1/2 hours SE of Highlands)
