OK, I'm going to open a can of worms for you guys. Let's say that the owners give up and they would sell the station to you for $10,000. Given the limitations of a daytime signal, would you buy and.... and what would you do with it? I like the dial position, but a daytime only sig, that's a tough one.

http://www.radio-info.com/smf/index.php/topic,110828.msg898051.html#msg898051...Either that, or go all-80s, again, hyper-focused on the office crowd. If you did that, I'd STRONGLY recommend automating and streaming nights / overnights so your fanatical P1s would have something to listen to when you went off the air... I can't imagine why we'd need another Spanish-language language station, what with 101.5 & 1530. That would be like another sports station in OKC... ...Oh, wait a minute... nevermind...

P.S.- They went off the air right before 4pm today, right in the middle of Chuck Berry's "My Ding-A-Ling." ROTFL! I'll say this: it's interesting hearing music on AM with (a far as I can tell) NO compression. I really wonder if they have any final limiting! It's w-a-y open, like a non-Dolby cassette with the Dolby switched on (remember that effect?). If they need programming, I have an internet radio station stream I hereby authorize them to re-broadcast...  Pre-processed, too! (Hey! Send me the calls and city of license and I'll put it in rotation!)

Noticed they were on the air again tonite...called and called and nobody answered...wanted them to play "Pata Pata" by Miriam Makeba, to honor her passing...
If you ever played that 45, you worked in MOR!!! Be brave enought to admit it!! That song played on my Gates 16" TT, amplified thru a Gates Yard, and transmitted thru about a 150 ft AM tower...and all the cows, pigs and tomato plants in rural South Jersey that heard it, loved it.
Oh...per some of the above...plenty of ways to make money with that signal if the purchase price were right.

ANd if you look back at a previous post, I mentioned who purchased it and the link I gave would bring you to fccinfo.com and give you their mailing address/email address.

Only because I don't know much about the engineering side of these things, is there a way the FCC would grant a night signal on 1120? For instance, positioning the signal in a particular direction at a low power, but enough to cover your city of interest--covering, say, Catoosa/Broken Arrow (since it's licensed to Catossa in the first place)? (But probably by the time you got to Claremore, the signal would be gone?). Any of you technical guys have an opinion?
