Have I got this right? There is nothing in the guidelines that says an FCC licence per se makes a radio station notable. There is an essay that says "Notability can be established by either a large audience, established broadcast history, or unique programming." In other words, an FCC licence isn't a guarantee of notability. And there is a 'common outcomes' article that says flatly "are notable if they broadcast over the air and originate at least a portion of their programming schedule in their own studios." which doesn't agree with the essay. The last mention of radio on the talk page is Sept. 2007.  Why isn't this in the guidelines if it's cut and dried? Isn't that what they are for, so that people can use them and make sensible decisions on whether or not to take an article to AfD? I'm not trying to be difficult, but this seems pretty messy and contradictory
