Pillar Of Fire Christian AC “Star 99.1” WAWZ Zarepath, NJ/New York is expanding its programming to Long Island on August 1.
Pillar of Fire will begin leasing Livingstone Broadcasting’s 107.1 WLIR-FM Hampton Bays and its network of translators across Long Island to expand its “uplifting music and personalities to a whole new audience of Christian music fans on Long Island” as “Star 107.1“. The stations currently broadcast Holding Out Hope Church’s “Hope Radio” programming.
In addition to WLIR-FM, which covers the eastern end of Long Island, the “Star 107.1” programming will be heard on 94.9 W235BB Hauppauge, 96.5 W243BF Shirley, 96.9 W245BA Manorville, 101.5 W268AN Plainview, and 104.5 W283BA Selden.
WLIR-FM was leased out last August to Champions Radio, which flipped the station to Sports but the station folded in February bringing a return to the Christian programming.
Does this mean 101.5 and 96.9 aren’t going to be simulcasting 94.7 WLIX-LP? They’ve been simulcasting WLIX for a while, now.
