For the last decade, Dave Crooks' DLC Media had an LMA with Vincennes University's WFML (96.7fm, Vincennes), where DLC Media ran several different formats: Country ("The Fox"), Rock ("MAX") and their current format: classic hits ("JackFM"). That LMA will end next Friday (3/31) and Vincennes University will begin running the station. The new format will be unveiled sometime next weekend. RadioInsight.com mentions Vincennes' choice for PD: VU alum Dane Foley. Mr. Foley last worked behind the microphone at The Original Company's Country/WWBL (106.5fm, Washington). Dave Crooks comments, "We hope our ten year investment has helped fund several scholarships for the VU Foundation. It’s always a pleasure to partner with Indiana’s First College."

That's all for this issue. Thank you for your continued support.
