FCC: 1490 KFKB license cancelled

The FCC today cancelled the license for 1490 KFKB Forks.  The station has been silent for over a year due to loss of it’s transmission site. Owner Forks Broadcasting responded to the commission that it’s license expired & was not interested in pursuing renewal.  Yet another AM station that couldn’t survive, Forks Broadcasting continues to operate 96.7  KBDB as that city’s only outlet
