Another of my locals bites the dust. I noticed WKZV-1110 off the air today,
and then found this post C pbrtv.com: "We're hearing that Washington,
PA-licensed WKZV-AM (1110) is now off the air for good. Apparently the land
on which the tower sits has been sold and the tower site is expected to come
down soon. The station signed on in 1970 as WKEG and held a variety of
formats and owners until 1991 when the station went off the air. In 1992,
the station went back on the air as WKZV and was sold again in 1993 to the
current ownership of "My-Key Broadcasting". Mike Panjuscek (AKA "Polka
Mike") and Helen and Stanley Supinski were the key shareholders. Panjuscek
died in 2011 and Mrs. Supinski continues to hold the reigns. The format has
long been Classic Country and specialty programming (including "The Peddler
Hour" on which PBRTV was featured in 2002)."
It's sad . . . they played country classics, kind-of old-fashioned . . . but
I guess there's no money in it . . . so long, WKZV.
