Would KWAO be the station w/ Air 1 that I've been getting on 88.1 (and 105.7, likely the xlator out of Orting) lately? I thought it was K-LOVE...

Could be possible. (I can't tell, because at my location here in Bremerton, the KPLU translator is still booming in clearly from it's View Park site near Olalla, albeit on a 2-3 second delay) EMF owns both K-Love and Air-1, so perhaps with the call change, maybe they switched it to their other network? (Seeing that the new calls would match the network) EMF also got permission to boost power on KLWA on 101.3 (which carries K-Love) in Westport, to cover more of what 88.1 lost when it moved.

Yep, that's the Air One, although I thought that's what they were carrying before as well. I'm in northeast Seattle, and it used to be equal with the KPLU translator, depending on direction. No jazz at all now, and Air One is listenable.
Of course I'm not in the area the KPLU translator was designed to reach, and 88.5 needs none here, so no loss of service, just another EMF freq on the dial.
I thought the 105.7 was Calvary Chapel, though. But after a while they all blend together.
When radio ceases to be a viable option, maybe all that'll remain will be various religious translators, all coexisting on every frequency, providing interference for each other.

I was just told by a friend of mine that KPLU has just been granted approval to move to 92.1Mhz from the FCC.
Does anyone know if they've made this switch as of now?
