After going silent in July following the loss of its previous tower site, Pittmann Broadcasting Service’s “Cat Country 98.9” WUUU Franklinton, LA has returned to the air with a loop of Katy Perry’s Roar.
WUUU was granted a Construction Permit to operate as a Class C3 with 25kW at 100 meters at the end of November; an increase from its former Class A with 6kW at 33 meters. Its former CatCountry989.com website now redirects to a parking page for BigKat989.com, perhaps playing off the soon to be increased coverage. The new signal will give WUUU coverage in most of Northeaster Louisiana including Bogalusa, Hammond, and Kentwood.
