Hubbard Radio pulled the plug on Modern AC Click 98.9 KLCK-FM Seattle at
12pm today and is currently stunting with nonstop Frank Sinatra. The
stations website has been replaced with quotes from multiple songs
including Beatles In My Life, Elvis Presleys Heartbreak Hotel and Garth
Brooks Unanswered Prayers. Floating question mark bubbles which when
clicked on bring up the video for Rick Astleys Never Going To Give You Up.
As we reported earlier today, Hubbard registered many domains pointing to a
flip to Sports. Additionally the station has applied for new KVRQ call
letters. “Click 98.9� registered a 1.9 share in the January PPMs in a
crowded Hot AC field that also includes Sinclair’s “Star 101.5� KPLZ and
iHeart’s recently repositioned “106.1 Kiss-FM� KBKS. More details as they
become available.

Friends of Public Radios 91.3 WHQR Wilmington NC is moving its Classical

of 92.7 W224CX Wilmington from Conner Media and completed its upgrade to

Wilmington where it plans to eventually land in the Southport/Oak Island
area to enhance the Classical programmings coverage in the beach
