Brighter Media Group will close on its acquisition of Empire Broadcasting AAA 103.1 WRNR-FM Grasonville/Annapolis MD at 12am tonight and flip the station to a simulcast of Christian AC “95.1 Bright-FM” WRBS-FM Baltimore.
New call letters of WRHS will take effect. Brighter Media Group agreed to acquire WRNR-FM last November for $1.54 million.
Brighter Media Group announces it has acquired WRNR (103.1), Grasonville, MD. It will simulcast BRIGHT-FM (95.1 WRBS-FM) licensed to Baltimore. The simulcast is expected to begin at 12:00 a.m. on Saturday, February 11th.
“We are excited to be expanding our organization to a greater portion of Maryland’s eastern shore than BRIGHT-FM now reaches,” says Steve Lawhon, General Manager of Brighter Media Group. “This also allows for improved coverage of BRIGHT- FM programming in the northeast Baltimore suburbs and the I-95 corridor,” Lawhon says. “We grateful for the opportunity to reach more people with hope and encouragement.”
The simulcast is expected to begin broadcasting on 103.1FM at 12:00 a.m. on Saturday, February 11th. The new station will cover 1,000,000 people. Its new call letters, upon approval from the FCC, will be WRHS.
