I Want Power!

I've been without electricity since Friday after a quick yet damaging storm blew through the area two days ago.  Temperatures are in the upper 90s and I'm jealous of the people across the street who never lost power.  Add in the neighbor with the annoying, super-loud, gas-powered generator, finding a place to keep the contents of my refrigerator and walking the house by flashlight at night...it's been a frustrating time.

 "Power 103" KCDD is a Rhythmic Contemporary station licensed to Hamlin, Texas.

"Power 94.3" WZKB was an Oldies/Adult Contemporary station licensed to Wallace, North Carolina circa 2001.  They currently carry a Spanish Religious format.

"Power 92.5" CKNG was a Hot Adult Contemporary station in Edmonton, Alberta circa 2004.

WRKY

 WRKY was a Country station licensed to Steubenville, Ohio circa 1997.

This sticker could be from any number of Froggy branded Country stations but, fortunately, somebody wrote "WRKY" on the back.  It was probably printed just before they switched their call letters to WOGH and moved their city-of-license across the border to Burgettstown, Pennsylvania.  The frequency-free decal covers WOGH and two other simulcast stations: 104.3 FM WOGI - Moon Township, PA and 94.9 FM WOGG - Oliver, PA.

Radio Sticker of the Day Mailbag - WLEY

A jumbo package of radio sticker heaven arrived in my mailbox yesterday from Dan Sys in Langley, BC.  Along with a stack of decals, he also sent some pens, a lanyard, a banner and assorted other goodies.  THANK YOU DAN!!  Inside I was happy to find a decal that I've been trying to hunt down for a few years now...
