The challenges of operating any large business in our increasingly challenging economic times can be ex- tremely difficult and frustrating at best. We will all miss Patlin’s wonderful services and certainly wish Earl all the best in his future endeavors. If you missed it, check out page 10 of the January 2nd edi- tion of Radio World. There you will find a nice article about the antenna replacement for radio station WJZL in Lansing, MI – a job well done by Al Warmus and his team from Warmus and Associates located in Bath. The project re- quired helicopter antenna lifts on two different days. A note goes along to remind folks that Thom Mandell who also owns and operates the Rubber City Radio Group of stations in Akron (WQMX, WONE, and WAKR) also owns WJZL. Can You Believe This Stuff? Finally yet importantly is the news of the WJW-TV8 in- process sale and a holding company coming up with billions and billions of dollars to purchase Clear Channel. I also read where The Weather Channel (a cable channel) may be sold for as much as five-hundred billion dollars. And, How Many Readers Know This? From the bet you didn’t know this category - WJW weath- erman Andre Bernier and WKYC’s Bruce Kalinowski (Ed- wards) were the very first on-camera meteorology team when The Weather Channel started broadcasting on Sunday, May 2, 1982 at 8:00 P.M. The Weather Channel was a speculative start up at that time. Now its worth, apparently, hundreds and hundreds of billions of dollars. How is that for blowing up a good old-fashioned Texas dust storm? Take good care and stay well!

  • ENGINEERING STATEMENT This Engineering Statement Is Prepared
    ENGINEERING STATEMENT This engineering statement is prepared on behalf of Media-Com Television, Inc., licensee of Low Power TV Station WAOH-LP - Akron, Ohio, in support of comments in MM Docket 87-268, the DTV allotment proceeding. WAOH-LP operates on Channel 29 with a maximum peak visual effective radiated power of 60.6 kilowatts utilizing a direc- tional antenna. The draft table of DTV allotments contained in the Sixth Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking in MM Docket 87-268 proposes to allot Channel 29 to Youngstown, Ohio, as a DTV allotment for use by WKBN-TV, whose present NTSC operation is on Channel 27. The WAOH-LP transmitter site lies 21.3 kilometers inside the predicted 43.8 dBu noise limited contour for the proposed DTV operation of WKBN- TV on Channel 29. Thus, it is obvious that continued operation by WAOH-LP on Chan- nel 29 would cause interference to the DTV operation of WKBN-TV proposed in this draft table, since it is impossible to provide the required protection to a cochannel facil- ity, either DTV or NTSC, from a transmitter site located within its protected contour. The WAOH-LP transmitter site also lies within the predicted noise limited contours of the DTV facilities proposed in this draft table for three other stations for which DTV channels have been proposed which could possibly receive interference from the pres- ent operation of WAOH-LP: WQHS-TV Cleveland,OH Channel 28 WBNX-TV Akron,OH Channel 31 WFMJ-TV Youngstown,OH Channel 36 Based upon the DTV system performance capabilities outlined in Appendix A of this Sixth Further Notice, however, it appears extremely unlikely that the present operation of WAOH-LP would result in actual interference to the DTV operations proposed in this ---- CARL E.

    Published Monday, April 30, 2001, in the Akron Beacon Journal. http://www.ohio.com/bj/arts_and_living/docs/025177.htm On the air Akron's first radio station crackled to life in 1922 BY MARK J. PRICE , Beacon Journal staff writer Oh, WOE was Akron. When the city's first licensed radio station went on the air in April 1922, the joys of ``wireless telephony'' reverberated throughout the community. Yet the important event became just a footnote in local history books -- if mentioned at all. Perhaps it's because the station had such a short life span. Or perhaps it's because the city's biggest newspaper chose to ignore the station entirely. The Akron Beacon Journal maintained radio silence when the oddly named WOE crackled to life. The newspaper must have considered the broadcaster to be electronic competition. Furthermore, the station was allied with the rival Akron Press, which provided WOE's news bulletins and baseball scores. Ron Syroid of Akron has been piecing together WOE's lost history while doing some research for former Cleveland WMMS program director Donna Halper, an author, radio marketing consultant and instructor at Emerson College in Boston. What little we know of WOE can be found on microfilm reels containing Akron Press articles. So let's start at the beginning. ``IT'S AKRON WOE'' the Akron Press reported on April 13, 1922. ``Local Radio Station Receives License to Broadcast.'' On April 6, the federal government granted permission to Buckeye Radio Service Co. to operate a station at 569 S. Main St. across from B.F.
