Florida Today Cocoa, Florida 17 Aug 2015 WMEL Moves To 1060 On AM Dial For Stronger Signal WMEL AM, known as the “The Talk to Me” station, is now able to talk a little louder these days. Last week, the station’s owner, Broadcast House LLC, signed a deal to purchase WIXC in Titusville from Genesis Communications. The result of that transaction-whose terms were not disclosed-means WMEL’s signal grows from 5,000 watts to 50,000 watts and the station’s dial moves from 1300 to 1060. “With this major upgrade in signal power, our new ‘flame thrower’ positions us to reach millions of additional listeners with exceptional talk radio programming,” said John Harper, a 50-year broadcasting veteran and owner of Broadcast House. “The move also enables our advertisers to reach millions of new customers and extend their brand recognition from Daytona, south to West Palm Beach, and from Florida’s Space Coast west into the Orlando metropolis,” Harper said. WMEL’s lineup includes a mix of local and national programming. The station is located at 2355 Pluckebaum Road in Cocoa. National stars include Dave Ramsey, Doug Stephan, Jim Bohannen and Dana Loesch, among others. Local personalities include Lillian McDermott, Laureen Trent, Ed Dean and Donna Anselmo. “We intend to continue the high-quality coverage AM 1300 WMEL has delivered for more than a quarter century,” Harper said, “including our phenomenal lineup of local hosts who are very well educated and passionate about their topics.” |
