History of W273CA
Thanks to Jim Hoge, President of Central Florida Educational Foundation, Inc. for this history of this translator.
"It started its life on 102.7 in Groveland.  It along with two other translators were moved into town in 2009 for our HD channels as their coverage was now duplicated with the purchase of 88.7 WMYZ, Clermont in 2005. At the time my good friend, John Gross from WLOQ(-FM 103.1) was dying of Lou Gehrig's disease and his family gained control of the station and sold WLOQ to Adam Linderman (
TTB Media Corporation) to become Spanish WHKQ. Linda Byrd came to me and said, "Let's rebuild WLOQ in honor of John". I parked the WLOQ calls on a facility we had down in Osceola county so we could use could legally use them. Linda had access to smooth jazz on Clear Channel's premier network.  I have to admit, it didn't quite have the spark of the old WLOQ, but as John lay dying,102.5 was playing on a radio at his bedside in tribute. After John's death,102.5 WLOQ struggled on being handicapped by premier. And as luck would have it, it achieved its highest ratings the month the decision was reached to simulcast WFLF.
