JENSEN BEACH, FLA. — On February 4, it became known that a 1kw Class C AM licensed to Martin County, Fla.’s main city and a companion Class D AM with 5kw during daylight hours but just 63 watts at night over neighboring St. Lucie County were sold.
Now, the buyer of those venerable AMs to the north of West Palm Beach is acquiring an FM translator.
Little Dog Media Group, a limited liability company based in nearby Jupiter that is wholly owned by Christina Biegun, has agreed to purchase W297AG at 107.3 MHz in Stuart.
While the facility has just 10 watts, it covers communities along growing Kanner Highway, a main link between Stuart’s downtown and Interstate 95.
W297AG will join W291AL at 106.1 MHz, covering an agricultural swath west of Fort Pierce, as well as WSTU-AM 1450 in Stuart, and WPSL-AM 1590 in Port St. Lucie, Fla.
The seller of W297AG is Central Educational Broadcasting Inc., and it is earning $50,000 from the transaction.
Serving as the buyer’s legal counsel is Anthony T. Lepore of Radiotvlaw Associates.
