WAEI-AM 910 in Bangor, ME has requested approval to go silent for the time
being until
a buyer can be found, and if not, then turn in the license. WAEI is the
former WABI-AM, a 5,000-watt fulltime
facility in the second largest market in the state that came into being in
1924.
The tower site is the problem. It is being re-designed or sold, and the 2
towers to be taken down. typical scenario.... "the land is worth more than
the station". In this case, it's quite true, as the area the towers are,
is in one of Bangor-area's mall development areas. - I really hope this
great heritage station is purchased. (I'd do it if I had the time, and if my
wife would let me!)
