More from Des Moines
June 19, 2006
In an update to the Des Moines situation, at the moment 100.3 The Bus is technically KPTL and 106.3 The Capital is KDRB, but that appears to be simply a procedural thing to secure the desired call letters for the new station until the official switch can take place. The FCC can be a bit strange at times with things like this, but my understanding is that the call letter situation will be worked out shortly.
More relevant to the situation, I read that the 100.3 signal is the strongest FM signal in the state of Iowa. I don't have independent confirmation of that, but I do know that has a very large broadcast radius. It's a good sign for the format with Clear Channel putting Variety Hits on that extremely powerful stick.
