WDUQ remains strong with pledges
WDUQ's Fall fund-raising campaign was successful despite dire predictions from some after the station refused a Planned Parenthood underwriting campaign. GM Scott Hanley told the Post-Gazette that the station came within 3% of the $275,000 goal.

WKHB Told No on Move
For the second time, the Federal Communications Commission has rejected a proposal to move the city of license of WKHB (620) from Irwin in Westmoreland County to Brentwood in Allegheny County. The FCC told Broadcast Communications Inc. on Oct. 26 that changing the city of license would have "no net service benefit" to the market while removing "the obligation to provide service" to Irwin. A 5.5kW daytime, 50W nighttime station, WKHB is co-owned with Jeannette-licensed WKFB (770) and Waynesburg's WANB-AM/FM.
