Goodrich looks to transfer WPRR FM 90.1 to Tyrone Bynum

So this only applies to WPRR FM 90.1, Clyde Township. There have been no transfer papers filed with the FCC in regards to WPRR AM & W273DD, both of which are owned by Goodrich Radio, LLC. WPRR, Inc owns 90.1.

I am not super sure that I read that properly, but, there's a line about no financial transactions taking place... they're giving up the license essentially free?

Why would anyone want it? Even in the best of times, it seemed to be off the air more than on. It's coverage is basically just the rural blueberry fields of NW Allegan county. The signal can reach into south Holland, but that is fringe.

C'mon - any station with city grade signal in Hamilton should be a cash machine! ;)

I didn't look at the coverage map until you said it...holy crap. I mean, it might make a better community station for Allegan than anything else... give it to the High School? lol

That station probably has 10 listeners...on a windy day tops.
