In August 2022, BAAZ Broadcasting Corp. emerged as the buyer for expanded band Class B KNTS-AM in Seattle. The transaction closed 11 months later, leading the licensee to submit a Petition for Declaratory Ruling with the FCC seeking approval of a stock sale that would give 100% ownership of BAAZ to Sukhdev Dhillon.
A pleading cycle has now been established by the Media Bureau, during which time it will seek public input on whether or not Dhillon, a Canadian citizen, should be the station’s sole owner.
