WEER (88.7 FM) is an American radio station licensed to serve the community of Montauk, New York, since 2006. The station's broadcast license is held by Eastern Tower Corp. WEER normally broadcasts a light jazz format to Montauk and East Hampton, New York.〔〔 ==History== This station received its original construction permit from the Federal Communications Commission on March 21, 2002.〔 The new station was assigned the WPKM call sign by the FCC on November 26, 2004.〔 WPKM received its license to cover from the FCC on August 30, 2006.〔 In October 2010, license holder WPKN, Inc., reached an agreement to sell this station to Hamptons Community Radio Corporation for $60,000. The deal was approved by the FCC on December 8, 2010, and the transaction was consummated on June 6, 2011.〔 The station changed its call sign to WEER on June 16, 2011, with a callsign swap with the now-defunct WEEG.〔 In October 2013 the station was returned to the air, and sold to Eastern Tower Corporation. The sale, at a price of $5,000, was consummated on January 22, 2014. For over a year, the station boldly only broadcast audio on the Right Channel. It is believed to be the only such broadcast station in the world to have adopted this groundbreaking concept, only to "go dark" again. The station finally returned the air in June 2015, following extended silent periods permitted by the FCC in response to pleas citing financial problems, a search for an alternative tower/transmitter site, and damage from Hurricane Sandy in 2012. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「WEER (FM)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
