WIBA-FM Moving to Sauk City???
Yes, part of a plan Clear Channel has to provide a better signal of WMAD to Madison. Clear Channel wants to move WMAD to a tower in Madison, in order to accomplish that WMAD's city of license will change to Cross Plains, currently WMAD broadcasts with 5.1kW/205m, the new facility would be 620 watts at 309m. Since the FCC strongly frowns upon removing the only radio service from a city of license, WIBA-FM will change their COL to Sauk City. WIBA-FM's currenty facility will remain in-tact.
