Gee Communications signed off Classic Country “The Point” 1340 WHAP/96.9 W245CU Hopewell VA on June 7 as owner David Gee is retiring and seeking a buyer.
Gee told the Petersburg Progress-Index, “I’m retiring and it’s time for new ownership to come in and take a swing at it.” While the station itself has signed off, its daily format, the syndicated Saturday morning “Into The Blue” Bluegrass show, and Sunday church services are still being made available via stream.
WHAP had featured a local morning show hosted by Gordon Finney. other local specialty music shows, and a weekend sports talk show. That “Bottom Line Sports Talk” will move to SummitMedia’s “ESPN 106.1” W291CL/WURV-HD2 Richmond on Sunday mornings in August.
The station is being offered for sale by a local real estate agent. Gee will retain Classic Country 800 WSVS/97.1 W246BZ Crewe VA.
