Chesapeake-Portsmouth Broadcasting is selling 94.1 WSOS-FM Fruit Cove/Jacksonville FL to Norsan Media for $1.6 million.
The deal includes an imminent LMA that will see WSOS-FM’s Classic Country “Jax Country” format move to 100.3 W262AG Jacksonville/100.7 WMUV-HD2 Brunswick GA. The brand originated on 105.3 WYKB in 2017 and then added WSOS-FM as a simulcast the following year. WYKB was then sold to Norsan in 2021. Former WOKV-FM producer Hannah Guile, who joined Chesapeake-Portsmouth Broadcasting as APD and sales associate earlier this year, will add afternoon host duties at “Jax Country 100.3“.
