I didn't realize WCHO (AM) had changed to standards. Last time I heard it, it was still Country. Richardsur 12:33, 14 Jul 2004 (UTC)

From where I took the info it was standards. The source could be wrong, making me incorrect also AlKollar

Any reason why WQKD(I think) 1650 AM is not on the list it ou tof the falls. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.213.114.164 (talk) 18:14, 28 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

The Ohio State University and references

edit

Mlaffs Let me start by saying it appears that radio/tv stations is a focus of yours and that we have about the same amount of experience on Wikipedia. I understand that it may be correct, however I looked at the references for the article. *None* of the references on this page (all of which are through archive.org) appear to allow for checking of it. (The FM lookup and the Arbitron). I went to the page specifically for WOSA FM(if that is a poor example of the ones on this page owned by tOSU, please let me know). Of the external link specifically about WOSA specifically on *that* page, Nielsen doesn't have any information, radio-locator says "Ohio State University" and the fcc.gov site does say "The Ohio State University".

Is there any single reference that would have "the Ohio State University" that would cover all of the stations in this article., or would it be a situation where each radio station line would need a separate fcc.gov reference?Naraht (talk) 14:26, 20 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Not sure why those links are through archive.org. They should all be available as live links, particularly the AM and FM queries. Here's the link to the FM query – https://www.fcc.gov/media/radio/fm-query. Select Ohio as the state, leave the rest of the fields alone, and then select either of the results tabs. The results will be the complete list of FM allocations in Ohio, and will include the call sign, the frequency, the community of license, and the licensee (amongst other info). Same process for the AM query – https://www.fcc.gov/media/radio/am-query.
In terms of the external links you tried on WOSA, radio-locator does have "The Ohio State University" – it's included under the "Station Owner" label. The Nielsen template was giving you no return because the code was outdated (that's been fixed now), but it wouldn't include the licensee regardless. Mlaffs (talk) 01:21, 21 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

The name listed with the FCC for these radio stations is irrelevant here. MOS:THEINST is, and by that rule, and our page name, it's Ohio State University, not The Ohio State University. – Muboshgu (talk) 20:09, 3 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
