It shares its call letters with an FM in Boston offering Country music that is owned by Beasley Media Group. And, it is being acquired by Word Broadcasting Network in a transaction agreed to on May 31 that’s just been submitted for regulatory approval by the FCC.


Sonshine Broadcasting Company is agreeing to spin Class D WKLB-AM 1290 and W283AH at 104.5 MHz in Manchester, Ky.

A $275,000 purchase price has been agreed to by the parties.

This sees Word, led by President Robert Rodgers, take on ownership of the stations upon closing.

WKLB-AM signed on in 1980 under Larry and Lynda Barker through their Barker Broadcasting.
