Radio and Television Transactions

It is now known how much NRG Media will be earning from two sales, one involving a five-station deal with Usher Media and another that sees an FM become a Nebraska Public Media noncomm. An LMA went into effect on Tuesday for the properties Alan Usher's group is obtaining from Mary Quass's company.

A division of Light of Life Ministries Inc. focused on broadcast media since 1994, thanks to the donation of an Augusta, Me., AM radio station, has moved forward with the sale of a noncommercial FM with a Construction Permit for a Class C3 signal serving cities to the north of Bangor and Orono.

An asset purchase agreement has been filed with the FCC for its approval that sees a 1kw Class C AM serving Eastern Washington's largest metropolitan area change hands. Once the deal is consummated, Keith Shipman will officially expand his equity interest in radio stations to another market in the Pacific Northwest.

He's been an active participant in radio station ownership in Appalachia for several years. Now, Roger Bouldin has opted to sell an AM radio station with an FM translator serving Huntington, W. Va. Who's the buyer?

Coloff Media LLC has decided to trim its holdings ever-so-slightly by agreeing to sell one AM and two FMs in an area north of Waterloo, Iowa. The buyer is a partnership that includes an individual who is a former Regional Director of Content for Townsquare Media.

A low-power TV station serving the city that's home to the University of Florida is about to change hands. Pending FCC approval, it will become a property held by prolific LPTV station trader Kristina Bruni.

It's a small city nestled on the east side of Interstate 25 between Casper and Cheyenne, and just south of popular destinations like Fort Laramie National Historic Site. Here, one can find a Class C AM with an FM translator and a Class A FM sibling. Soon, they'll be under new ownership.

It boasts a motto of "Teach. Talk. Jesus!" and at present can be heard on stations serving Evansville, Ind.; Louisville, Ky.; and both Huntington and Charleston, W. Va. Soon, this broadcast ministry's programming will be heard just west of the Twin Tiers of Pennsylvania and New York, as it is purchasing an FM in the small Western New York market.

In 1965, he became a co-owner with his brother Norman of what would become "Radio Carlisle." Today, the operation includes an AM/FM combo and a pair of FM translators. These facilities are now in the hands of another family member, as Harold Swidler's passing has led to an involuntary transfer of control.  

A well-known trader of low-power television stations has moved ahead with an exchange agreement with a Pennsylvania non-profit that will see his company add a Parkersburg, W. Va., property to its stable. In return, the charity organization is getting a Clarksburg, W. Va., LPTV station.

It serves Union County, S.C., "and beyond" with a 1kw AM radio station and its FM translator, offering Country music to a region to the southeast of Spartanburg.  Pending FCC approval, these broadcast facilities will be under new ownership.

It is a silent FM radio station with a construction permit for a 33kw signal from a mountaintop facility due west of Skokomish, Wash., and the Tacoma area. Soon, it will no longer be a Jodesha Broadcasting property, with a new owner coming to this Grays Harbor-focused station.

It was a transaction that was quietly submitted for FCC regulatory approval ahead of the Labor Day holiday. Now, broker of record Doug Ferber tells RBR+TVBR that the deal has closed, giving iHeartMedia ownership of an FM translator in Austin it had been leasing.
