iHeartMedias 93.3 W227CX North Palm Beach/92.1 WRLX-HD2 West Palm Beach has
dropped its simulcast of Country Wave 92.7 WAVW Stuart/Port St. Lucie and
is now stunting with Christmas Music.

W227CX had begun simulcasting WAVW in January 2016 to give an in-market
Country competitor to Alpha Medias 103.1 WIRK. It never made much of any
impact in the market, registering a mere 0.1 share in each of the last
three PPM monthlies.
