They filed for STA five days later.

Looks like they’ve been silent ever since.
And that states;
Silent Since: 02/07/2011
Silent Reason TECHNICAL
The *same day* they filed the 319! So, I guess my question remains; “anybody know how many hours they have *actually* been on the air?”
This from All Access:
GRANTS PASS RADIO CO. has closed on the donation of the construction permit for a new FM at GRANTS PASS, OR to BETTER LIFE TELEVISION, INC. for no consideration.
This is actually a CP for an AM on 830. Facility 161074 was opened up in Auction 84. It is a 5kW day, 1kW night to be built with a two tower array. The daytime signal will push into Medford. The nighttime signal will have a deep null to the east to protect WCCO in Minneapolis so getting into Medford might be an issue at night. If it gets built, this will be Better Life Television’s first radio station.
Dear Mr. Kalisek:
In re: KQIK(AM), Lakeview, OR
Facility ID No. 48648
Silent since November 1, 2011
Notification of License Expiration
Our records indicate that the station referenced above has been silent since at least November 1, 2011.
Therefore, pursuant to Section 3 12(g) of the Communications Act, as amended,’ the station’s license expired as a matter of law at 12:01 A.M., November 2, 2012. Unless we receive documented evidence within 30 days of the date of this letter that our records incorrectly reflect the perational status of the station and that, in fact, the station returned to the air at some time between November 1, 2011, and 12:01 A.M., November 2, 2012, the Commission’s public and internal databases will be modified to indicate that the broadcast license for the referenced station IS EXPIRED, that the station’s license IS CANCELED as a matter of law, and that the station’s call sign IS DELETED.
This is a real shame! KQIK was the only broadcast signal available in the Lakeview area for several decades. I saw an application about this, basically stating the same thing, this morning but it seems to be gone now. Notice of the cancellation and call letter deletion is still there however.
The FCC dismissed KQIKs license renewal application this week because the license had been canceled.
This from All Access:
COMMON FREQUENCY, INC. has requested an extension of its Silent STA for KQCF/CHILOQUIN, OR “to complete station upgrade.”
This from All Access:
JPR FOUNDATION, INC. is selling the 22 stations of JEFFERSON PUBLIC RADIO to the STATE OF OREGON, for SOUTHERN OREGON UNIVERSITY, for $10. The transaction is part of the settlement reached in AUGUST 2012 in the dispute between the school and the foundation over control of the stations (NET NEWS 8/29/12).
SOU could turn these 22 stations into translators for their own station, assuming they have one. If not, they could designate one as the flagship and the other 21 could be translators. Needless to say, having pretaped ID’s at each of these would be a must. If you think that OPB’s list of stations is long, think of having to read 22 of them! You’d have to start reading the list well before the top of the hour!
Best, Mike 8)
