On the banks of the Little Androscoggin River, off the northbound lanes of U.S. 202 on the approach to Lewiston, Me., sit twin directional broadcast towers for an AM radio station that in recent years has offered Adult Standards and Oldies and circa October 1977 was an adult-focused Top 40 station branded as “Musicradio 1470.”
Today, they are silent, as the licensee earlier this month received a grant for a silent Special Temporary Authority request from the FCC. If the AM returns to officially celebrate its 78th birthday will likely be up to any potential buyer.
