Yesterday there was a change from 92.5 FM to 95.3 FM. Why? Because there is going to be a new translator that is under construction that will sign on any day now. It’s one of those spanish stations that is part of the AM translator program on AM 1600. So I had to pack up and move to 95.3 FM.
The AM station for this part 15 station still remains on 540 AM, but the FM frequency had to switch from 92.5 FM to 95.3 FM. After this, if there are no more FM stations the AM station will be the only thing that will be available.
What we need to do is remove most of these AM to FM translators and relocate the some where else. This has been a problem. This happenned last year with 96.9 FM and now it’s going to happen with 92.5 FM.
The translator information about the new 92.5 FM for AM 1600 is right here. The station will possibly sign on the air around late Spring or Summer of 2016. Also this is not just going to cause congestion, but it will take that special DX FM Window for my home listening location that has coverage from NC and other locations in the summer time.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say I’m worried about the future of FM for Hobby Radio and even just listening with all the translators out there.
