Crawford Broadcasting is shrinking its operations in the Birmingham AL market.
Christian Preaching 1260 WYDE/96.9 W245CS Birmingham and 92.5 WYDE-FM Cordova AL have ceased operations with Crawford telling the FCC, “We will, during the time the station is silent, seek viable and sustainable programming and sales options for the station.”
Ahead of shutting down WYDE, Crawford swapped translators for its two AMs in Birmingham with W245CS being paired with WYDE and 95.3 W237EK Birmingham moving to be paired with 850 WXJC. Crawford will continue to operate Christian AC 93.7 WDJC-FM Birmingham and Preaching/Southern Gospel “Truth 101.1” 850 WXJC/95.3 W237EK Birmingham and 101.1 WXJC-FM Cullman.
