No, Educational Media Foundation isn’t about to launch a Spanish-language Christian music station in Oklahoma’s second-largest market.
Rather, it is making a deal with David Ingles Ministries for a noncommercial band FM in Tulsa.
The station has call letters that pay homage to the seller, KDIM-FM 88.1 in Coweta, Okla. It is a 100kw Class C1 facility and presently a part of the company’s “Oasis Radio Network.”
That’s about to change as EMF is paying $2,415,000 for the station.
Ingles, in conjunction with tower site owner Creative Educational Media Corp., on Friday (8/20) signed off on the sale.
Should for some reason the deal not reach closing, a $120,750 payment in liquidated damages is agreed upon by all parties.
For listeners of the Oasis Radio Network, they can tune to another big signal — KNYD-FM 90.5 in Broken Arrow, a Class C with a signal contour covering the southern portion of the Tulsa DMA.
Those seeking KLOVE, the EMF Christian Contemporary non-comm network, 88.1 MHz will likely replace FM translators that until now have given it a Tulsa home.
