94.9 is currently repeating Clear Channel KPAW 107.9 FM HD-2, which is an Adult Alternative format. I'm not sure how this ownership change will affect the programming of the signal. I'm assuming Clear Channel has a contract to use the translator even after an ownership change since they just launched the format in May. Here's the web site for the station: http://www.radio949colorado.com/ (http://www.radio949colorado.com/main.html)
But... Edgewater Broadcasting does seem to program their signals with their own Christian format "Freedom Radio".

Just like any other bussiness, I am sure that VIC iinformed Clear Channel of this ahead of time, so that STUE or someone could go up to the new owners and work out a new contract? They can't loose 94.9 at all, and in fact I would think they would have to honor the current one though?
