FCC ActionsAfter issuing a $7000 fine (https://radioinsight.com/headlines/188726/fcc-report-6-7-wtoy-fined-for-late-license-renewal/) in 2020 to Ward Broadcasting Corporation?s Gospel 1480 WTOY Salem VA after the station failed to file a license renewal application on time and engaging in unauthorized operation of the station after its authorization had expired, the FCC has entered into a Consent Decree after the station argued that the stroke suffered and subsequent death of owner Irwin Ward Sr. mitigate against an administrative punishment or sanction that might be imposed and that his heirs took immediate corrective action upon learning of the Station?s deficiencies and filed the renewal application and STA Request within 30 days of WTOY?s license expiration. The consent decree also complies with issues relating to the station failing to maintain its online public files.
