Moving To 104.5 FM Translator |
The already crowded sports talk market in Oklahoma City soon
will be getting its sixth sports talk station. Tyler Media has announced that
it is launching a sports talk radio station in August on FM 107.7, according to newsok.com.
Classic Rock KRXO, which had been at 107.7, will move to a
new frequency at FM 104.5, the company announced.
According to the news
release, KRXO's lineup of Bob and Tom, Cara Rice, Buddy Wiley, Kelso, Unkle
Dave and Rick Caldwell are expected to move to a much smaller signal on 104.5, a new translator..
Ty Tyler, president of Tyler Media, said it is in the process of hiring local sports
talent from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. for the new unnamed station on 107.7 FM, which he
said will have the strongest signal in the market. The station will include
play-by-play of OU sports and be associated with NBC Sports.

The addition of 104.5 will give Tyler Media six FM signals
in the market, one above the normal limit. However, Tyler said the FCC allows
an HD channel to be rebroadcast by a FM frequency. KRXO will be broadcast on
both 107.7 HD2 and translator 104.5 FM. The sports station will be broadcast on 107.7 HD1
and 107.7 FM.
