Northcentral Technical College pulls plug on Low-Power FM

Sep 03, 2006 6:33 am
Mike Cannon, a producer of the Mike Cannon Show at WNRB reports that Northcentral Technical College (NTC) shut down the less-than-two-year-old Wisconsin LPFM station down yesterday without any explanantion.

"We will lose the FCC license if NTC does not allow us to transfer it," Cannon's post on the microradio listserv said. "WNRB volunteers had no warning that this might happen, and are shocked when we got the e-mail today telling us not to come in. The studios is locked, and all our CDs and personal items are locked away to."

Cannon and others at the station urge listeners and others to contact the NTC President Lori Weyers, PH. D. at weyers@ntc.edu and ask her not to do anything that would put in jeopardy our license.

Apparently, the new station is not fully licensed yet, and is running on a construction permit due to expire on November 21, 2006. Stay tuned.
