Re: [IRCA] KWDB 1110 format change?

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

>From November 2011 Radio Business Report:

Satnam Media Group Inc. has struck a deal for an AM on an island not far
from Seattle WA. It will be the first US station for the licensee, but not
the first station – a minority partner is already active in the Alberta,
Canada radio scene.

The station is KWDB-AM Oak Harbor WA. Its Class D 1110 kHz signal, limited
to 500 Watts which can only be broadcast during the daytime, means it is
not destined to be a big hitter in the Seattle-Tacoma Arbitrons, even if it
put its primary signal over the urban area. And that it does not – it gets
fringe coverage only from its position to the northwest of Seattle,
including the waters to the west of the city.

The seller is Action Pages LLC, headed by David Lindsey. The price is $35K
cash.

Buyer Satnam is 80% owned by Paramvir S. Bisla. However, it is 20% owner
Sukhdev  S. Dhillon who provides the Canadian connection – he has a stake
in CIHS-FM inWetaskiwin, Alberta
