Michigan station callsign swaps
I have removed the speedy tags. I'm gonna go ahead and get all this taken care of through WP:RM. JPG-GR (talk) 23:29, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
- Actually, I'm not quite sure what to do now. You seem to have completely changed WCNF to be WSJM-FM, which doesn't make any sense to me. I'm gonna keep researching the swap and then try to figure out what goes where. JPG-GR (talk) 23:33, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
- I think all of the pages reflect the current branding/formats/frequencies/histories, etc. Additionally, redirects have been setup in the proper places. Feel free to check my work to make sure everything is located where it should be now: WCNF, WCSY, WCSY-FM, WHIT-FM, WSJM-FM. JPG-GR (talk) 00:03, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

L.E.K. Consulting
Rob,
I encountered this page while I was going through and deleting pages within CAT:CSD. It's well within an administrator's prerogative to remove a tag and decline to action a page. I believe it to be a notable company - I'm not blind to the previous issues, though - and have removed the tag and declined to act. - Philippe | Talk 01:01, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

About dates for KKXX and KSMJ on KDFO page also about KBKO-FM page
Rob, Where on the FCC page does it say KKXX was at 96.5 on 7/1/98 and KSMJ was at 96.5 FM until 7/1/98. I remember KKXX moving to 96.5 on 7/2/98, unless the FCC messed up on the date. KDFO will stay KDFO as it says when you click on the FCC deal on there. If anyone switches KBKO-FM, then we'll have inform them because the FCC page says KBKO is KBKO-FM. I made sure the infobox said KBKO-FM. Thanks for making the image for KBKO-FM fit. That looks a lot better for KBKO than not having an image. There's rumors that Clear Channel is going to sell 98.5 KBKO. Keep me informed. I was able to figure out how to update KBKO, so that people that check out the KBKO page here will know it's 98.5 FM and not 96.5 FM. I did try to switch it at the KDFO page because I thought that was where it needed to be changed. That's why I believe it says KKDJ on one of the pages. I finally figured it out, as you can tell. Let me know though about where it says the dates for KKXX and KSMJ because I never saw that. I saw where it says KDFO and if I switch it again, you can just say "STOP SWITCHING IT JOE, IT'S KDFO not KDFO-FM. Same for KRAB. JoeCool950 (talk)
- Another editor posted a reference on the article to the call sign history. It's not uncommon for the official call sign to be moved ahead of time or even some time after a format switch. So you may remember a switch on the 2nd, the calls were switched a day earlier according to FCC.gov database. Hope that helps. RobDe68 (talk) 03:41, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
Question
I've got a question about the infobox. This involves another station KTPI-FM, shouldn't it say KTPI-FM on the infobox where it says the station call letters. It says that as PER FCC for that station. I was just wondering. You know how on the KBKO-FM one right above the logo where it says KBKO-FM, that should say KBKO-FM. Shouldn't be the same for KTPI-FM? If so, I'll find out who switched and let them know to stop switching it. JoeCool950 (talk)
- It looks like whoever created the infobox just overlooked that. No biggie just change it. I'm temporarily moving the KTPI-FM page because somebody just swapped text when they had a frequency switch involving 3 stations. You're supposed to move the article to the new call letters to preserve edit history for that frequency. That can get tricky at times because obviously the new article name is already taken by the other station in the frequency swap. I've successfully swapped many stations now, it just looks scary while I'm setting it up.RobDe68 (talk) 05:20, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
Looks Good
KTPI page looks good. If I hear of a station swap, I'll let you know. Hopefully, I did the KBKO and KDFO kind of right. I copied the stuff about KDNO over to KBKO-FM for the history of 98.5 FM. I'll still let you know, so that you can make the swapping official, since you've had experience doing that. I'm sure you noticed that KDFO wasn't changed!!!! Also, thanks for fixing up the logo for KBKO-FM. JoeCool950 (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 10:00, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
- I already swapped KDFO and KBKO-FM a few days ago. The idea is that the edit history stays with the frequency, not the call letters. Thanks.RobDe68 (talk) 10:42, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
Question
Is it bad of me to use my name and last name? Just wondering. I'm dealing with a sinus infection. I be glad when it clears up. —Preceding unsigned comment added by JoeCool950 (talk • contribs) 08:08, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
Question
Where it says 98-5 KBKO, is that supposed to be Ittalicised? I fixed up KTPI where it said 97-7 KTPI. It's Ittalicised now. If someone switches it on KTPI-FM, go ahead and switch it back and whoever switches it, let them know. Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by JoeCool950 (talk • contribs) 08:22, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
Look for KTPI-FM KSRY and KVVS
When you get the chance, look over the KTPI-FM, KSRY and KVVS. I made a few changes, especially KTPI-FM. I added the top of the page pointer too. Just look over it and see if it looks good. I ittalised 97-7 KTPI. I'm guessing the branding name needs to be ittalised. Just look it over. If you see someone changes what I did, or if the pages need to be fixed up more, go ahead and fix them up. Hopefully they look better. I took off on KTPI where it said (formerly KVVS etc.) I figured that didn't need to be on there. If it does, go ahead a put that back on there. Also, let me know, if I'm not signing my name after my messages. Is that what we're suppose to do. --JoeCool950 (talk) 09:15, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
Sorry if my moves in regards to these 3 stations weren't up to par with wikipedia's regulations. I wasn't exactly sure how else to do it, but thanks for correcting my mistake and I'm sorry for any inconveniences that this may have caused you. Whammy (talk) 03:31, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for KTPI Logo
Rob, Thanks for the KTPI-FM logo. I wasn't sure how to put that up. It looks better, the page I mean with the logo on there. I fixed some of the stuff. I'm sure you can tell what I fixed up. Ittalised stuff that needed to be ittalised and bolded what need to be bolded. Hopefully it looks better. Also, info about KSRY on 103.1 FM, KSRY is a simulcast of Star 98.7 FM. It's on the frequency that KTPI-FM use to be on, which was Tehachapi's own radio station. Just to let you know. Don't know if you want to put up the 98.7 logo for that or not. --JoeCool950 (talk) 19:28, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
WZKL/WDJQ
The change was made late in the day today, as I understand it. The FCC's site may not have been updated yet. I heard a legal ID last hour that ID'd the station as WDJQ, so either they're using the calls illegally at the moment or the change is official and the FCC database just hasn't been updated.
Just what I know, for what it's worth. :) --InDeBiz1 (talk) 06:55, 1 March 2008 (
- The newspaper article that I cited on that information mentions that the WFAH calls were in use as early as 1949, if I remember correctly. But, since it's been several days since I linked that article, I could be wrong. --InDeBiz1 (talk) 07:12, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
Fair use rationale for Image:KHJZ (FM).PNG
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:KHJZ (FM).PNG.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box.

WSAN
I've restored the page because of a previous page history. However, for consistency, the talk page of a moved page should be preserved, so I've also undeleted it. bibliomaniac15 Midway upon life's journey... 05:38, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
KBKO-FM page
Rob, Would you mind watching the KBKO-FM page. For some reason, Rtphokie took off the schedule on there. I fixed it up. I told Rtphokie not to remove it again. If you notice he/she removed it again, put back on there and let him/her know. --JoeCool950 (talk) 03:47, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
Fixed KRAB
KRAB is a Rock station, or Mainstream Rock station. It said Alternative. I corrected that. I fixed up KEBT. KEBT should never be switched to KEBT-FM, per FCC. I left as KEBT, since that what FCC said it was. You can let me know if you like KEBT? --JoeCool950 (talk) 05:56, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
Edit KBFP
Take a look at KBFP. I don't know why Clear Channel doesn't move KBFP to 96.5, then it can be 96.5 FM/800AM and have the same license like KUZZ. Reason I'm saying that is because the FCC call letters for KBFP is KBFP-FM and for AM it is simply KBFP. Wierd isn't it. Just look because I fixed the license on there because 105.3 is licensed to Delano and AM 800 is licensed to Bakersfield. That's why they should move KBFP to 96.5 because 96.5 is simply licensed to Bakersfield. Would make more since to me. Just look to see if that looks good enough. Hopefully it does. Where it says 105.3 now, I put KBFP-FM (105.3). Let me know if that's O.K. If so, then let me know and leave it like that. I just indicated where 105.3 is licensed and where AM 800 is licensed. The only one I made KBFP-FM is where it says where 105.3 is licensed. Hopefully you understand why I had to do that for KBFP. Thanks. --JoeCool950 (talk) 06:14, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
Question (Please respond back if you know)
Rob,Would you mind letting me know what Wikipedia:Changing username is. Wouldn't I be able to use the Move button on my page. Some administrator dude took it off of my page. I'm making him put it back on. If not, I'll tell you who he is, so you can avvoid him. I put in some silly user name and this dude blocked my user name. Now I'm trying to reason with him and he's not being so cool. I'm hoping he can give me some answers, but just explain what Wikipedia:Changing username does. Does it change my entire User name and User talk name? If you know, respond back. --JoeCool950 (talk) 05:35, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
Question for KDFO
Rob,I've got a question about the KDFO page. I saw a page kind of like this, I don't want to move KDFO to this with out checking with you first, but could it be KDFO(FM). The page I saw like that was KNMI. I'm not move KDFO to that, unless you say it's O.K., or KRAB either. Let me know.--JoeCool950 (talk) 07:19, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
KMNI
It did have a disambiguation page. There was and it wasn't a radio station that I think uses the letters KMNI, if that's what you're referring too. I know that KDFO and KRAB don't. That's what the (FM) or the parenthises around the FM stand for. But since KRAB doesn't have one of those pages, KRAB needs to stay KRAB. I'm guessing though, that's why KBKO-FM is KBKO-FM because there's a KBKO-AM. Thanks for the info. You noticed I second guessed myself about KRAB, that's why I left that message for you on the site, so that you'd know and moved it back to KRAB because I was guessing it had to have that page (disambiguation ) you were mentioning, or some other bussiness or radio station using the KRAB letters. So with that said, there's no need to have the parrenthis or in that matter have it on there (FM)for KDFO and KRAB. Now if the FCC has KBKO-FM as just KBKO, then KBKO will have to be KBKO (FM). Hopefully I'm understanding what you're talking about there. It was just about why they had FM like (FM). But you explained it was because of the disambiguation. Thanks for responding, so that I know a little bit more about that. --JoeCool950 (talk) 02:11, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
KBKO-FM
Don't know if the deal has closed yet, but KBKO-FM is eventually going to be owned by Lotus Communications Corporation out of Texas, let me know when the deal closes, so we can switch it. I'm guessing, when the deal closes, they'll change up the website at www.kbkonation.com. Still says it's owned by Clear Channel. Someone changed the owner already, and the deal is just pending right now. If the deal has been made, then let me know. Don't think the deal is closed yet though. Keep an eye out for when the deal closes and Lotus takes over KBKO, so we can make that switch. Thanks.--JoeCool950 (talk) 06:24, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
KBKO-FM info
There is a deal pending that Clear Channel is going to sell KBKO to Lotus Communications, but whoever was on before me, had already changed it to Lotus Communications, and that's not the case. The sale is still pending. The deal won't be sealed and the new owners taking over until sometime during the fall. I changed it back to Clear Channel and put this (deal pending with Texas Lotus Corporation). That's what's going on with KBKO right now. Whoever changed it doesn't even have a paged. I checked to see if I could write back to let them know that Lotus Communications are not the owners yet, that the deal is pending, but with the name in red, figured I probably better not. Just wanted to give you the info that sometime during the fall, we need to check to see when the deal is made, so we can take off Clear Channel and put Lotus Communications. --JoeCool950 (talk) 18:11, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
KBKO
Don't know if you're from the Bakersfield area, but sometime in the fall, we need to keep an eye on KBKO-FM because not sure if you heard, eventually KBKO-FM is going to be sold to Lotus Communications in the fall and there's a possiblitly that KBKO-FM will change formats, and probably call-letters too. Boy is radio interesting. Wanted to make you aware. --JoeCool950 (talk) 01:45, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
KBKO-FM and KDFO Swap
Might want to take off the logos for KBKO-FM and KDFO on the info page because I just heard that they're switching back or KBKO back to 96-5. Would you mind looking into it, if you're from the area. I'm on vacation and heard it over the internet. Thanks. --JoeCool950 (talk) 20:20, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
KDFO/KBKO-FM (Respond Back)
Wanted to let you know that KDFO and KBKO-FM, the pages need to be swapped. Under history, you can include that on June 20th, the stations switched back, and the programming needs to be swapped and KDFO is going over to Lotus, not KBKO. KBKO moves back to 96.5 and KDFO moves over to 98.5 for Lotus to take over. Thought I'd let you know. Thanks. I'm on Vacation, or I'd try to do a little bit, but you know how to swap the pages. The old 98.5 logo for KDFO is back up, since they're going back to 98.5 FM. Let me know if you can take care of the rest. Thanks.--JoeCool950 (talk) 18:15, 20 June 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for getting KBKO fixed up (or helping)
Thanks for helping getting KBKO-FM and KDFO fixed up. I was on vacation and I didn't want to fix it up too much on a lap top. Not much you can do on those things. I was able to remember the old image for KDFO, to get that back up as original image for the page under where the image was. Looks good. Not changing a single thing. Hopefully these two stations will stay where they're at. If KDFO changes formats, I'll be surprised. Maybe this was the format change, flipping the stations back and selling KDFO instead of KBKO. We'll find out. --JoeCool950 (talk) 08:31, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
KBKO-FM info
Rob, I've got some info on KBKO-FM. KDFO isn't going to Lotus, it's still KBKO-FM, Lotus wants the bigger freqency (96.5 FM). I'll make that switch. From what I'm hearing, Lotus either wants the bigger frequency for KBKO, or the deal was off, so it's still KBKO going over to Lotus, but it's 96.5 instead of 98.5. You can see I made the switch, to make it correct. --JoeCool950 (talk) 23:57, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
Thought from area
I didn't know you weren't from the California area, or area of where KBKO-FM is located at. I will defnitely hunt up a previous 96-5 logo. Could it be an old one, the program director is playing old jingles from when they were branded as "Big 96-5." He said he's just mixing up the stuff for fun, I guss since KBKO is going over to Lotus. The format could possibly change in the fall he said. Will be interesting. You can let me know if the one I find will work when I find it. --JoeCool950 (talk) 00:20, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
info on KBKO
Rob, since you're not from the area, just wanted to let you know that there's a "Big" possibility that KBKO will change formats, when Lotus Communications takes over and possibly call letters. If they do change, then will it be O.K. to move the KBKO-FM call letters to whatever the new call letters are? Just wanted to know. Not moving it, until I see what happens to 96.5 when Lotus changes. Possiblity I saw could be Hip-Hop. On the reference I have on there they say the format could be either spanish, which it probably won't be, since 105.3 is spanish, or English. Although, it could be Spanish since 96.5 will eventully belong to Lotus. Whenever the format change happens, I'll update it. I read that KBKO could be sold by mid-August. It will be a wait and find out what happens. The station use to be branded Big 96-5 and the station is playing their old jingle that says Big 96-5, so they know the format is going to change. Just thought I'd let you know. For the new station that Lotus replaces KBKO with, is it look to put the info about the new station on the KBKO page, once the KBKO call letters are moved to the new call letters, if Lotus changes the KBKO call letters. That's my big question? I figured you'd be the best one to ask.--JoeCool950 (talk) 05:29, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
- We generally don't move the page until the call sign is officially changed on the FCC site (sometimes it shows up in the "call sign history" first). If the station starts using new calls for ID purposes but they are not official yet with the FCC, change it in the article but but don't move the article until it's official. Sometimes the new call letters were previously used and it won't let you move the page. Let me know if this happens, it's tricky but I know how to get it done. Don't copy and paste the article to the new call letters, that leaves the edit history abandoned. They frown on that. If you're unsure about anything just let me know when the time comes.
