License cancellations.
Langer Broadcast Group’s 1410 WZBR Dedham/Boston and translator 98.1 W251CR Medford MA were cancelled as both were silent or operating with unauthorized facilities for more than a year. WZBR went silent on March 5, 2023 following the death of owner Alex Langer. The station filed a resumption of operation with the FCC noting that it was operating with 10 watts from a different location and then filed an STA to operate with those facilities a week later. WZBR then filed to go silent again on April 2.
Southern Oregon University’s 1490 KSYC Yreka CA was cancelled after failing to respond to an FCC inquiry into its operational status. The commission noted that KSYC has been silent since at least July 19, 2022.
The FCC has cancelled American Asset Management’s 1390 KHOB Hobbs NM with the station recorded as silent since June 28, 2022. The licensee failed to respond to the FCC’d operational inquiry in February.
