This page contains news concerning radio and television stations, mainly (but not exclusively) within the ten states on which this site focuses (IL IN IA MI MN MO ND OH
SD WI). We do not claim any degree of comprehensiveness here; I read various outside sources and also include news
passed to me by friends in the hobby as well as items from my own listening. I cite my sources and always appreciate news tips from readers, but cannot guarantee that the
information I receive is always correct and typo-free. News concerning station ownership and personnel, as well as changes of power and antenna height, are normally omitted from this page. The date (which changes at midnight central) indicates when I typed the item, not necessarily when the change took or will take place, and a day's entry may be updated a few times during the course of that day. All times are central, unless otherwise specified. The newest items appear at the top, and old items are removed after one month.
