After operating JYH Broadcasting’s 96.7 KNOB Healdsburg/Santa Rosa CA since its sign-on in 2002, Sinclair Communications’ Wine Country Radio has lost control of the station.
The end of the LMA signals the end of Rock “96X“, which had quietly segued from Alternative earlier this year. Sinclair will continue to operate Spanish CHR “Latino 95.5” K238AR/KSXY-HD2, AAA “95.9 The Krush” KRSH, Spanish AC “Exitos 98.7” KXTS, and CHR “Y100.9” KSXY in the Santa Rosa market.
KNOB is currently Silent while awaiting a new operator and format.
