Transactions: 4/17/06-4/21/06
Station trading as filed in the matter part of the middle of April was a mixed bag to say the least. There was a rare two-market radio-TV combination sale, a wide variety of market sizes, and there were eight, count 'em, eight FM CPs, mostly in unrated markets, transferred to American Family Association for no consideration. As you will see below, Colorado Springs was the epicenter.
