The station's audio channel, transmitting at 87.75 MHz, lies within the FM band; as a result, WLFM-LP can and does operate as a radio station at 87.7 FM. Owned by Murray Hill Broadcasting and operated under a local marketing agreement (LMA) through TSJ Media, the station airs a Spanish language format under the brand La Mega 87.7. WLFM-LP also serves as the Spanish language radio home of the Cleveland Cavaliers. ==History== The former allotment, channel 65, was originally for a planned station of WERE-AM back in the 1950s.〔http://www.newsnet5.com/dpp/news/news_archives/video-vault-cleveland-tv-right-before-your-eyes〕 The station never materialized and thus WERE-TV never aired. The channel 65 allotment was eventually used in 1998 when the current station moved from channel 47 (W47BE). After the move, the call letters were changed to W65DL. In 2000, the call letters were changed to WXOX, which were originally assigned to a radio station on AM 1250 in Bay City, Michigan. In the final years of WXOX, the station was affiliated with the Home Shopping Network. HSN had previously aired in Cleveland on WQHS-TV Channel 61, which became a Univision affiliate in 2002. WXOX submitted an application to move to channel 44 and increase power to 120 kW, but then modified the application to convert the analog transmission to digital.〔http://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/prod/cdbs/forms/prod/getattachment_exh.cgi?exhibit_id=620547〕 FCC findings stated that channel 44 would cause interference with nearby WNEO.〔http://licensing.fcc.gov/cgi-bin/prod/cdbs/forms/prod/getimportletter_exh.cgi?import_letter_id=10550〕 So WXOX instead decided to briefly carry a digital feed on WCDN DT2.〔http://licensing.fcc.gov/cdbs/CDBS_Attachment/getattachment.jsp?appn=101182451&qnum=5120©num=1&exhcnum=2〕 WXOX was then forced off the air on October 27, 2009 when wireless carrier Verizon purchased the part of the wireless spectrum where the station had been broadcasting.〔http://licensing.fcc.gov/cgi-bin/ws.exe/prod/cdbs/forms/prod/prefill_and_display.pl?Application_id=1342041&Service=TX&Form_id=910&Facility_id=6699〕 An attempt was made to convert WXOX to a low-power digital station on channel 31,〔http://licensing.fcc.gov/cdbs/CDBS_Attachment/getattachment.jsp?appn=101285477&qnum=5100©num=1&exhcnum=1〕 which was previously used by WJW before the June 12 analog shutoff date. However, due to potential co-channel interference issues with CITY-DT-2 across the lake in Woodstock, Ontario (which also broadcasts on UHF 31, in digital), the application was abandoned. In May 2011, the station's owners, Venture Technologies Inc., filed a new FCC request to move the station to Channel 6 analog〔http://licensing.fcc.gov/cgi-bin/ws.exe/prod/cdbs/pubacc/prod/app_det.pl?Application_id=1361899〕 leading to speculation that it would be used to carry the audio feed of an FM radio station since the sound of channel 6 analog can be heard at 87.7 FM on any FM radio. The analog signal on channel 6 has since gone on the air in testing mode. The station has not found a suitable channel for its digital signal at this time, though it has since filed for applications to either flash-cut to digital operations on VHF 6 (which would render it unlistenable to radios due to the different technologies used from analog FM, HD Radio, and ATSC), or to convert to digital on UHF 44 (which may be subject to adjacent-channel interference from WNEO, which broadcasts on UHF 45, in the southeastern portions of its viewing areas, such as near Akron). 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「WLFM-LP」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
