# WSDS

WSDS (1480 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station in Salem Township, Michigan. Known as "La Explosiva," WSDS carries a Spanish-language Contemporary Music radio format, featuring Regional Mexican, Romantica, Spanish Rock, Salsa, Hurban, and Reggaeton. It is simulcast with WCAR 1090 AM in Livonia.
By day, WSDS is powered at 750 watts. But in unusual move, it increases its power to 3,800 watts at night. To protect other stations on 1480 AM from interference, it uses a directional antenna with a three-tower array. The transmitter is on West Clark Road at Laforge Road in Superior Charter Township, Michigan.

## History

The station began broadcasting in 1963 as WYSI. This call sign stood for the original city of license, YpSIlanti. The first format was Top 40 hits. By 1966, the station switched to a country music format.
In 1968, WSDS adopted a strategy of focusing on the western suburbs of Detroit, using the slogan "We Serve Detroit's Suburbs" and sending its broadcasting van to events in the area. By the early 2000s, "Suds" was still playing country music but had become a classic country station. Weekends included specialty programming in Chinese and Spanish, as well as some classic rock and roll oldies.
"La Explosiva" was born in July 2001 when Alex Resendez and Rafael Barrios, two local Mexican-American radio personalities, leased time on WSDS for three hours of Regional Mexican music programming weekly. By 2005, the station, by then sold to ethnic broadcaster Sima Birach of Birach Broadcasting, was airing five hours of "La Explosiva" programming six days a week. In June of that year, "La Explosiva" became a 24-hour format over WSDS.
As of February 2011, programming was simulcast on WWCS in Pittsburgh. But on January 1, 2012, that station's format changed to Fox Sports Radio.
In April 2012, Birach sold WSDS, pending FCC approval, to Vazquez Broadcasting. The sale was consummated on July 1, 2013, at a price of $1.45 million.
Until WDTW 1310 AM adopted a similar format in 2016, WSDS was the only full-time Spanish-language radio station on traditional analog radio serving the Detroit area.

# WSFC (AM)

WSFC (1240 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station broadcasting a news/talk format. Licensed to Somerset, Kentucky, United States, the station is currently owned by iHeart Media as part of a duopoly of five radio stations, along with Classic country station WSEK (910 AM), country station WSEK-FM (93.9 FM, classic rock station WJQQ (97.1 FM), and Top 40/CHR station WLLK-FM (102.3 FM). WSFC maintains studios with its sister stations, along with transmission facilities, on 1st Radio Lane in the northern part of town. WSFC features programming from Compass Media Networks and Premiere Networks, and Westwood One.

## History

WSFC began broadcasting at 2:35 p.m. Central Time on December 14, 1947. On September 1, 1948, it became an affiliate of the Mutual network. The station was owned by Southeastern Broadcasting Company, Incorporated and broadcast on 1240 kHz with 250 watts of power. An FM counterpart, WSFC-FM (now WSEK-FM) was signed-on in 1964.
Over the course of its history, WSFC has changed hands numerous times. The station was launched by a group of local businessman. WSFC was sold to former congressman Wendell H. Meade before being acquired by then-general manager Mike Layman in 1950. Fifteen years later, the WSFC stations were sold to Swartz Media, a division of the Roanoke Photo Finishing Company. In turn, WSFC and WSEK-FM were transferred to Shamrock Communications in 1974. In 1980, they were sold again, this time to First Radio. Two years later, the station became the first Kentucky-based NBC radio affiliate to receive that network's programming by means of satellite as it joined that network.
In 2001, WSFC and its sister stations were sold to Clear Channel Communications. In November 2006, Clear Channel announced that it would place its Somerset cluster up for sale. The following May, Clear Channel announced a buyer in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania-based GoodRadio.TV. However, the deal fell through due to financial difficulties, and the stations remain owned by now-iHeartMedia.
In June 2016, WSFC flipped from Fox Sports-affiliated sports radio to its current News Talk Information format, inheriting it from WSFE (910 AM; now WSEK.

## Programming

As of July 2022, WSFC does not provide any locally based talk programming. Its present lineup consists of syndicated programs This Morning, The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show, The Sean Hannity Show, Glenn Beck Radio Program, The Mark Levin Show, and Coast to Coast AM. Additionally, the station syndicated Kentucky Sports Radio programming from sister station and KSR flagship WLAP in Lexington, Kentucky. WSFC serves as the local affiliate of the UK Sports Network.
The station's broadcasts of worship services by the First Baptist Church, which began in 1948, is currently the longest-running church worship broadcast in Kentucky.
# WSFP

WSFP is a non-commercial, contemporary Christian FM radio station licensed to the Harrisville, Michigan area. The station broadcasts at 88.1 MHz, and is owned by Michigan Community Radio. WSFP simulcasts the Smile FM Praise contemporary Christian music format.
The original call letters for WSPF were WKKM. The call letters were changed to WSFP on October 1, 2008, to better identify the station as a part of the Smile FM Praise Network. The WKKM calls are now held by a Classic Country music station at 90.7 FM in Harrison, Michigan (where the original WKKM at 92.1 FM also operated).
In November 2007 WSFP filed an application with the FCC to change the community of license to Harrisville, Michigan, and move to 88.1 MHz with an increase to 3 kW. The new tower would be adjacent to the one currently used by WJOJ which would exchange its community of license with WSFP. A construction permit was issued on September 14, 2010, to increase power to 18 kW on 88.1, move the community of license to Harrisville, and move the transmitter to the same tower as WJOJ.
Until June 1997 the call letters WSFP were those of the stations now known as WGCU (TV) and WGCU-FM in Fort Myers, Florida.

## History

On September 7, 1985, the station first signed on at 97.7 FM as WGLV, an adult contemporary music station known as "Gainesville's Love 98." WGLV was co-owned with WGGG, a longtime legendary Top 40 station in the market, and tried to take advantage of the connection by hiring legendary WGGG personality "Boomer" Hough as its first morning show host. However, Hough's show lasted only a few months. WGLV tried to further bank on the legendary WGGG call sign in 1987 by adopting a 1970s-based oldies format as WGGG-FM and declaring "The Legend is Back!" This, too, proved short-lived. After WGGG-AM-FM were sold in 1989, WGGG-FM became WLCL, a soft AC station branded as "Clear FM".
From 1993 until the debut of WSKY in 1998 (except for a brief period during which it programmed oldies as WGGO "Go 97.7"), the station was known as WRRX "97-X". At that time, the station featured an adult album alternative format which was partially programmed via satellite from an outside provider, and locally in certain dayparts, featuring an eclectic variety of music. 97-X had a small yet loyal following in the local Gainesville music scene.
97-X was sold to Entercom in March 1998, for a price tag of $2.8 million. Entercom switched the call letters to WSKY-FM and changed frequencies to 97.3 MHz on June 7, 1998, boosting the signal to 13,500 watts from its previous 2,600 watts. The antenna height was nearly doubled to 948 feet from its previous 495-foot tower. This gave WSKY better coverage of the Gainesville-Ocala radio market, putting a high-quality signal over both cities. The station also switched to its current talk radio format. WSKY has since boosted its power to 50,000 watts effective radiated power (ERP) but reduced its height above average terrain (HAAT) to 492 feet.

# WSMX (AM)

WSMX is a broadcast radio station licensed to and serving Winston-Salem, North Carolina. WSMX is owned by Blue Ridge Broadcasting Corporation.

## History

From its October 1964 sign-on until 1976, this was a Country-Western station with the letters WKBX and a 10,000-watt directional signal shaped like a football. Stuart Epperson sold the station early in 1976 to Randolph Properties Inc. of Dallas, Texas, though general manager Curly Howard said no changes were planned. In July 1976, it became WURL ("World"), the first all-news radio station in the area. On November 3, 1976, Crash Williams said the news format would remain even after the demise of the NBC news service in mid-1977. Later, the station began airing Christian programming, primarily for an African-American audience. The first general manager of the station when the format became African American, with a Contemporary Gospel music and talk format, was Jay Francis Springs, in 1982, when the station was sold to Gospel Media. Other staff members were Leonard "Tippy" Calloway, Al Martin, Nancy Caree, Paul Johnson, Henry "Leon" Harper and Bea Swisher.
Early in 2014, WSMX had a Spanish language format as "Radio La Movidita".
Local businessman Jerry Holt was leasing WTOB in 2014 but lost the station and took over WSMX, which he had planned to switch to sports talk. In June 2014, both stations made changes. The oldies and beach music on WTOB was moved to WSMX along with some DJs from WTOB. Holt said WSMX would play rock, country, R&B and other music from 1956 to 1978, describing at as "the music you grew up with", though younger people enjoyed the music too. Among those too young to remember the music when it was new was Aaron Gabriel, a DJ who moved to WSMX after a month on WTOB and hosted "Midday Mojo" with soul, funk, blues and Motown. Dickie Dean's "Afternoon Delight" would follow Gabriel's. WSMX would also air On the Beach with Charlie Brown.
Holt lost the lease on WSMX, and in May 2015, the station was leased by Daniel Williard. IE “Dancin Dan Curtis”. Williard, who is also the lessee of WTOB, moved WSMX into the WTOB building at 3720 Reynolda Rd, and changed the format to 100% Carolina Beach and Shag. Mike Harding, a member of the Association of Beach and Shag Club DeeJays, was named Program Director. Williard leased WTOB and WSMX until early 2016.
In November 2015, the classic hits format from WTOB moved to WSMX temporarily, while the oldies and beach format moved online. The WTOB format moved to WEGO December 18.
Nancy A. Epperson and Stuart W. Epperson, Jr. later owned the station. The station returned to Spanish Christian programming until May 2017. Then parent company Truth Broadcasting simulcasted with parent station WTRU for a short stint; then on June 1, WSMX started simulcasting sister station WSTS which plays Southern Gospel music.
Blue Ridge Broadcasting, owner of WMIT in Black Mountain, North Carolina, now owns the station. A translator W235CY broadcasts at 94.9 FM.
# WSNG

WSNG (610 AM) is a radio station licensed in Torrington, Connecticut, broadcasting a talk radio format. WSNG is simulcasting 1360 WDRC (AM), Hartford. The stations use the slogan "The Talk of Connecticut" featuring Mornings with Gary Byron and syndicated programs the rest of the day, including Michael Savage. The station is owned by Red Wolf Broadcasting and features programming from Fox News Radio, Salem Radio Network, and Westwood One. The Talk of Connecticut stations also broadcast sporting events such as New York Yankees major league baseball, New Britain Rock Cats minor league baseball, Hartford Hawks college basketball and high school sports.

## History

WSNG was originally signed on in the late 1940s as WTOR which transmitted from 93 Perkins Street with 250 watts on 1490kc. It moved the transmitter to Harwinton in 1964 (WBZY was forced to shut down) after being granted 1 kW day 500w night with a three-tower directional array on 610 kc (most likely due to WGCH in Greenwich, Connecticut launching later that same year). It was then owned by Edmund Willian Waller. The callsign change came after the station was acquired by new owners at a date later than 1966.
The format at WSNG was full service radio throughout the 1970s and '80s. Many popular personalities worked at WSNG including "Captain" Jay Sheldon, Dan Lovallo and news anchor Jeff Zeiner. During the mid-1980s these personalities left and the format shifted to "consumer" radio. That format proved unpopular and an abortive attempt of returning to full service radio failed. New competition from WZBG caused the station to go dark in the 1990s.
Buckley Broadcasting purchased the station before it would have permanently lost its license. It now simulcasts WDRC as part of the Talk of Connecticut network.
On March 5, 2014, Buckley Broadcasting announced that it would sell its Connecticut radio stations, including WSNG, to Connoisseur Media. The sale was consummated on July 7, 2014, at a price of $7,922,035. Connoisseur sold WSNG, along with the other Talk of Connecticut stations (except for WWCO in Waterbury), WDRC-FM in Hartford, and W272DO in New Haven, to Red Wolf Broadcasting for $8 million in January 2018; the sale was completed on March 29, 2018.

# KARI (AM)

KARI (550 kHz, "Word Radio") is a commercial AM radio station in Blaine, Washington, United States, and serving Vancouver, British Columbia, and Northwest Washington state. It broadcasts a Christian talk and teaching radio format and is owned by Multicultural Broadcasting.
The transmitter is on Tracy Lane in Blaine, only a few miles from the Canada–United States border. KARI broadcasts with 5,000 watts by day and 2,500 watts at night, using a directional antenna pointed at the Greater Vancouver radio market. For listeners in Blaine, the station has a 45-watt FM translator at 95.7 MHz, K239CY.
The station has a brokered programming plan, where national and local preachers buy time on the station and may seek donations to their ministries during their shows. Programs include "Let the Bible Speak" with Ian Goligher, Focus on the Family, Grace to You, In Touch Ministries, Turning Point and Thru the Bible Radio.

## History

On October 1, 1956, George A. Wilson and L. N. Ostrander, doing business as the Birch Bay Broadcasting Company, filed an application for a construction permit to build a new 500-watt, daytime-only radio station in Blaine, originally specifying 930 kHz. It was dismissed, amended to specify 550 kHz, and reinstated in late 1957; a hearing examiner recommended its approval in 1958 as the first radio service for Blaine despite causing some minor interference to KVI, and the FCC granted the permit on June 18, 1959.
From a site on a field near Birch Bay, overlooking Drayton Harbor and White Rock, British Columbia, KARI debuted on February 12, 1960.
Soon after starting up, KARI filed to go full-time and increase power to 5,000 watts daytime and 1,000 watts nighttime. This was approved by the FCC in two steps: the daytime authorization in May 1963 and nighttime service in January 1964. On August 1, the improved facility was activated. Birch Bay Broadcasting was also busy expanding its service. In 1962, it obtained a construction permit to build an FM station on Orcas Island, which went on the air as KERI in July 1965.
From its first day on air, KARI (pronounced "carry") carried "an abundance of religious programs". This made it a new offering to the vast majority of the listeners in its service area, across the border on Vancouver Island and the Lower Mainland of British Columbia; Canada did not permit religious radio stations until the mid-1990s. Within a year of starting up, KARI was a full-time religious station, a format it continues to maintain. In addition to U.S. public affairs programming, it catered to the Canadian listener base by airing Canadian newscasts.
In 2000, after 40 years of ownership, Birch Bay sold KARI to Way Broadcasting, a subsidiary of Multicultural Broadcasting, for $3 million. The sale also included an unbuilt construction permit for a station at 1600 kHz.
# Maury Davis

Maury Davis is an American evangelist and convicted murderer. Formerly, he was the senior pastor at Cornerstone Church, a megachurch in Madison, Tennessee. He was a regular figure on InFocus, a weekly religious television show broadcast regionally on Nashville NewsChannel 5 CBS Network and via satellite throughout Africa and Europe on the Faith Broadcasting Network. Davis began his religious life after a jailhouse conversion while on trial for murder.

## Killing of Jo Ella Liles

On January 27, 1975, when Davis was 18 years old, he stabbed and nearly decapitated Jo Ella Liles, a 54-year old Sunday school teacher. Davis claimed to have had a jailhouse conversion while on trial for her death. Prosecutors were set on putting him to either the electric chair or life in prison. He blamed the killing on insanity, drug use, and the devil, and was eventually found guilty of manslaughter, which carried a maximum sentence of 20 years. While in prison, he began preaching to other prisoners. He ultimately served eight-and-a-half years before being released because of a combination of overcrowding and good behavior.

## Career

In 1991, Davis and his wife intended to start a church in Nashville, Tennessee. Rather than pioneering a new start-up church, he was elected as Senior Pastor of a 200-member congregation in the suburbs of the city. After 25 years, he grew the church to almost 5,000 members. Having retired from active involvement he now serves as a public speaker, church consultant, and life coach.

## Personal life

Davis has been married since 1985 to his wife Gail who he met at his church in Irving, where she was the pianist. In 1986, they became the parents of triplets, and in 1994 their son was born. They have six grandchildren, a girl and five boys.
