With 1kw from 1 tower within Ruby Hill Park in Southwest Denver, an AM branded as Mile High Sports has served as the Denver-Boulder market’s home for Colorado State Rams athletics and for the recently launched Bet R Network.
Now, Mile High Sports’ over-the-air coverage is in question, as the AM and the FM translator it has used for the past five years have been sold to separate buyers.
RBR+TVBR has confirmed that 4-K’s LLLP has closed on its sale of KDCO-AM 1340 in Denver. to California-based El Sembrador Ministries for $420,000.
The buyer’s broker is Sandi Bergman of Bergman Broadcasting.
At the same time, Rocky Mountain Public Media has closed on its $680,000 acquisition of K284CI at 104.7 MHz in Denver from 4-K’s LLP.
Guest Technology represented Rocky Mountain, while Cliff Gardner represented 4-K’s on both deals.
The translator’s coverage is limited to central Denver — albeit from the Cedar Lake antenna farm high atop Lookout Mountain. It will now be used to retransmit one of two undisclosed HD multicast offerings presently assigned to noncommercial KUVO-FM 89.3 in Denver. As such, 104.7 MHz could be the new home for KUVO’s HD2 hip-hop format, “The Drop.”
For the AM, it joins the Spanish-language religious El Sembrador Network, which can be heard across Southern California and in Chicago; Yakima, Wash.; Las Vegas; Monterey-Salinas, Calif.; El Centro, Calif.; and internationally in Guadalajara, Mexico and in Huelva, Spain.
