Subject: WSMN Sold And Expected Back On The Air Soon

   Today's (7/1) Nashua NH Telegraph reports that WSMN (1590 Nashua) has
been sold by current owners WSMN Broadcasting LLC to Absolute Broadcasting,
who also own WSNH (900 Nashua). Thomas Monahan, head of Absolute
Broadcasting, sais he pursued the sale to keep WSMN from being sold to a
national company.

   WSMN has been dark since Jan. 31 after the W.Hollis St. property that the
studios and towers were located was sold to developers planning to build
housing on the land. Monahan hopes to have WSMN on the air again by
Aug.15th. from a temporary transmitter site while looking for a permanent
site, and plans to have a mix of local news, talk, music and the return of
one of WSMN's staples, "Bargain Box".

   Here's a link to the Telegraph article on their web site:
