Educational Radio Foundation of East Texas is acquiring 104.7 KKTH Bosque Farms/Albuquerque NM from Delmarva Educational Association for $400,000.
ERFET, which also operates as Encouragement Media Group, will begin operating KKTH via LMA on October 1. The station currently airs Spanish Christian “Buenas Nuevas” network based at 830 WUMY /105.5 W288DJ Memphis. The buyer operates multiple Christian brands in the Tyler/Longview TX market including Christian AC 89.5 KVNE, Contemporary Worship “Lift Worship” 91.1 KGLY, Christian Preaching “The Well” 94.3 KZWL/95.3 KWLL, and Spanish Christian “Fuzion” 102.3 KLFZ/103.1 KHFZ. The company is also about to close on acquisitions in the Shreveport LA market that will bring KVNE and Fuzion programming to that market. With “Fusion” also heard on 97.7 KGFZ Lufkin, we’re told to expect that to also launch in Albuquerque.
