KYJJ is no longer simulcasting KYOZ-AM edit

Latest comment: 1 year ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Until recently, KYJJ's Wikipedia link had been redirected to that of KYOZ-AM Spokane. I attempted to create a new separate page for KYJJ but it was undone resulting in it being redirected once again to KYOZ-AM. I want to make it clear that KYJJ 94.1 Boardman (and KZJJ 104.5 Mesa for that matter) do not rebroadcast KYOZ-AM Spokane nor are they linked in any way (at least not any more).

While KYJJ did simulcast KYOZ-AM for a short time, both stations were sold by Xana Oregon to different owners. While KYOZ-AM was sold to Worship 24/7 and flipped to Christian music, KYJJ was sold to Alcon Media (same operator as KQFO-FM Pasco) and rebranded, and eventually flipped to Spanish CHR, which it is now currently.

For this specific post, whether KYJJ's article meets Wikipedia guidelines is irrelevant. Due to the fact KYJJ and KYOZ have went their separate ways, I believe it is misleading for KYJJ's Wikipedia link to redirect to the KYOZ-AM article. While I believe KYJJ should be able to have its own article, should the Wikipedia community not agree and wish to remove it, the article should be outright deleted as opposed to redirecting it to KYOZ-AM.

As for the KYJJ article, the only source I have is the recently created but actively maintained Facebook page, and the fact I live in Tri-Cities and can receive KYJJ in places around here. KYJJ is now simulcasting KQFO-HD3 (which happens not to be on at the moment) and K285FN Kennewick and they ID together as well. I haven't been able to find a website for KYJJ yet, Alcon Media isn't the most organized when it comes to the web.
