But an historic review process that has been corrupted by unfair tactics is equally wrong. There should be middle ground, and New Castle County officials should find it. END OF AN ERA Blue Hen sports expand exposure with FM radio Followers of University of Delaware sports on the radio have lost a dependable companion of 19 years since WDEL-AM was outbid for broadcast rights. The Wilmington station's last broadcast will be this Saturday's Blue-White spring football scrimmage. The move to the FM band by professional and university sports teams is part of a natural trend now that virtually everyone has access to FM radios.
Listeners are the big winners.
FM stations beam a clearer, better modulated signal no matter what the weather. And because of WRDX's powerful signal, Blue Hen fans from southeast Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Maryland can tune in. Many of the university's students will have little trouble finding WRDX on their radios. Atlantic Star is no newcomer to sports broadcasting. We welcome WRDX as a new player in the Delaware sports media, and say thank you to WDEL for two decades of quality Blue Hen broadcasts.
