Tuned In Broadcasting sells its rural FM frequencies 93.7 (WYYB/Kingston Springs – “The Phoenix”) and 94.1 (WRLG/Smyrna – currently as simulcast of Lightning 100) to Salem Broadcasting, a publicly-owned national Christian format. 

Tuned In Broadcasting sells its AM/FM combo 1590/94.3 (WDBL AM & FM/Springfield, TN) to publicly-owned Saga Communications. Saga would merge these stations into their multi-station Clarksville/Hopkinsville, KY cluster — leaving WRLT as Tuned In’s sole radio property.
