Deletion of WMCN (FM)

Comment: Appears to fail |notability. It is an FCC licensed station, though with an educational license, and originates much of its programming in its studio. It has had these licensed call letters since 1979. Such stations have generally been kept in past AFDs (See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Common outcomes#Broadcast media and the essay Wikipedia:Notability (media), although there is no policy which guarantees inherent notability for all such activities. The fact that it only transmits with 5 watts of power and only gets out a couple of miles is a negative factor, as is the fact that it http://www.macalester.edu/wmcn/ goes off the air in the summer and between terms; this makes it seem more like a hobby or vanity operation than a "real" radio station. If it had a several hundred or several thousand watt transmitter and maintained a daily operation its case would be stronger. The campus independent paper http://media.www.themacweekly.com/media/storage/paper1230/news/2006/02/10/News/Wmcn-Off.The.Air-2944656.shtml said that "the station is not popular" and "listeners are scarce" and those who do listen mostly use the webcast. I could find nothing but directory listings or passing references at Google News Archive and Google Books. Student activities such as chorale groups have had a great many articles deleted when there has been a better case for notability
