FCC Report 10/23: Pair Of Mississippi Licenses Cancelled For Operating Illegally

Lance Ventaby Lance Venta
October 24, 2021

Deletions

FCC Seal 2020 Federal Communications CommissionA pair of Mississippi signals have had their licenses revoked after a competitor claimed that the stations were not operating within legal parameters.

In April 2020, Delta Radio Network owner Larry Fuss submitted informal objections against the license renewals for Donald Pugh’s Eternity Media Group’s 99.5 WETX Vardaman and 1540 WKXG Greenwood MS. In his objections Fuss noted that WETX was never built, but filed for a license to cover in 2017 and a renewal in 2020, while WKXG was not utilizing the longwire antenna specified in its active STA, but rather by “taking turns” on the tower of Christian Broadcasting of Greenwood’s 1240 WGRM Greenwood or not operating at all.

After inquiries to show proof of legal operation at either station went unanswered, the FCC has cancelled both licenses for failing to operate within 365 days at legal parameters without a legal STA.

FCC Actions

The FCC has entered into more Consent Decrees over the Online Public Files and Political Files with license renewal applications.

The following licensees agreed to decrees for failing to maintain their online public files:

  • BP Broadcasters, LLC’s 93.5 WKZX-FM Lenoir City TN
  • Lakota Communications, Inc.’s 90.1 KILI Porcupine SD
  • MCL/MCM Georgia, LLC’s 1570 WIGO Morrow GA
  • Waldorf University’s 91.9 KZOW Forest City IA

The following licensees agreed to decrees for failing to maintain their political files:

  • 97.5 Licensee TX, LLC’s 97.5 KBNA-FM El Paso TX
  • MBC of Texas-KGGR, Inc.’s 1040 KGGR Dallas TX
  • River Rat Radio, LLC’s 95.7 KPKR Parker AZ
  • Villecom LLC’s 1550 KCOM Comanche and 93.1 KSTV-FM Dublin TX
