FCC Takes More San Diego Area LPFM Actions

On January 12, 2015, the FCC ordered in a single document the granting of an LPFM station for San Diego Catholic Radio and dismissal of applications from Active Pulse and Hi Neighbor. SDCR was given the right to construct its station on 93.7 MHz at iHeartMedia’s historic KLSD-AM/KGB-FM facility at Oak Park.

In summary, the FCC agreed with SDCR’s objection to Active Pulse’s application on grounds that the organization had no state record of being a non-profit organization. Hi Neighbor had earlier affiliated itself with AP in the mutually exclusive group.

93.7 MHz is currently occupied locally by 10W translator K229BO on Mt. Woodson rebroadcasting KPFK from Los Angeles after 90.7 MHz signed on in Tijuana.
