The station is currently awaiting FCC approval for the launch.
The sale is expected to imminently close upon FCC approval.
This required cooperation of those stations and FCC approval took the next 12 years!
The deal received FCC approval and was consummated soon thereafter.
It also requires no FCC approval, coming under a station's subsidiary communications authority.
With FCC approval, it moved to channel 14 in August 1961.
The sale, which is expected to close by the end of the year, is pending FCC approval.
Following FCC approval to increase to 1,200 watts, a new transmitter site was needed.
The sale was cancelled however, due to lack of FCC approval and poor economic conditions at that time, along with local reaction against media consolidation.
That sale is expected to close in first quarter 2013, pending FCC approval.
