The station WWFE 670 AM (La Nueva Poderosa) makes important changes that will favour its tuning on the island of Cuba through its new frequency of the station WMYM 990 AM (Oasis 990). This decision has been taken by the management of the network to which both stations belong, the Salem Media Group corporation.
La Nueva Poderosa can now be heard on the new 990 khz frequency, in addition to the 670 and 1550 khz frequencies of WRHC Cadena Azul.
According to network officials. La Nueva Poderosa will officially move to the 990 khz medium wave on 9 June 2025 with more power than the 7.5 kw transmitter on that frequency. It is not yet clear whether La Nueva Poderosa will leave the 670 Khz, which has been its spot on the dial for more than 20 years.
With this frequency change to 990 Khz, La Nueva Poderosa will finally be able to be heard in Cuba, as its current frequency of 670 khz is heavily jammed by the island’s government with powerful Radio Rebelde transmitters in almost every province of the country. At present Cuba is not in a financial position to move its entire jamming infrastructure to a new frequency, so it is very likely that 990 will be able to bring Cubans the news from the Cuban community in South Florida, Cuba and the world without difficulty.

As previously announced in this Blog, the station operating on 570 KHz is now identified as RADIO BELGRANO AM 570 (Ex Radio Argentina), a station that was operating on 650 KHz, under the name of RADIO BELGRANO AM 650. In this way, all the programming of AM 650 is transferred to 570 KHz, thus merging the two programmes into a single radio station. It should be noted that both stations are operated by the company ‘Prodera S.A.’, and therefore continue to operate from the same studios located on San Martín 569, 2nd Floor, in the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires, with the exception that RADIO BELGRANO AM 570 has changed its website to the new one: www.belgrano570.com.ar.
AM 570 operates with a power of 5 Kw, with a transmitter plant located in the Natural Reserve of Ciudad Evita, more precisely in the area near the intersection of the streets El Quebracho and El Surucuá, in Ciudad Evita, La Matanza District, Province of Buenos Aires (CG: 34°44’01.6 ‘S, 58°32’19.2 ’W), using an omnidirectional antenna of the Folded Monopole type of 114 meters in height. For its part, the former RADIO BELGRANO AM 650 is now identified as ‘AM 650’ and continues to broadcast music, having left its website www.belgrano650.com.ar inactive. It is estimated that the latter will remain on the air until a possible sale is finalised.

Corus News/Talk 980 CKNW Vancouver BC will move to 730 on Monday, February 24.
730 CFGO began simulcasting CKNW last June following the end of of its all-Traffic “AM 730” programming during Corus’ cutbacks last summer. The company says the move of CKNW to 730 will “better service our Vancouver listeners and provide wider, more accessible coverage in Downtown Vancouver and the Lower Mainland”.
Both stations currently operate with directional 50kW signals day and night. The current 980 facility operates with a four tower array east of Vancouver past Surrey with nearly all of its power going west. The 730 facilities is closer to Vancouver southeast of the city using three towers during the day and four at night.
Corus made a similar move in Edmonton last October with 630 CHED moving to 880. 880’s All-News “Global News Radio” programming signed-off simultaneously with CFGO last June.
