LHTC Media has sold 1480 WCNS/97.3 W247CX Latrobe and 910 WXJX Apollo/98.7 W254CR Latrobe PA to Steve Clendenin’s Maryland Media One for $475,000.
The sale filing has led to an immediate format change as both stations dropped their Variety Hits “Jack-FM” for Oldies as “Westmoreland Gold” via LMA. The format matches the programming on Clendenin’s 1330 WHGM Havre de Grace MD. Clendenin also owns the statewide “Radio PA” news network.
WCNS had previously been Soft AC “97.3 Lite-FM” until flipping to a simulcast of WXJX last fall. LHTC Media retains its cluster of stations in Morgantown WV.
