WPEN (AM) → WKDN (AM) – Radio station changed its format and call letters on Friday evening. Station under new ownership of Family Radio (Family Stations, Inc.).Radiokid1010 (talk) 19:40, 22 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

That's entirely reasonable, although the move should be to WKDN to replace the redirect. However, the FCC has not yet recorded this call sign change and, per long-standing practice, we don't move a station's article until the FCC has made it official. I've included a link below to the FCC database so you can easily check to see if or when they make the move. - Dravecky (talk) 16:58, 24 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

    - After researching, I found a radio station using the WKDN-FM calls, licensed in State College, Pennsylvania.
      - Actually, that FM station is just WKDN, no suffix, so that will have to change before the AM can change. - Dravecky (talk) 02:06, 27 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
        Okay. --Radiokid1010 (talk) 08:06, 27 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
And somebody went ahead and moved it anyway. Argh. They're way ahead of the FCC on this. Not good. - Dravecky (talk) 17:11, 27 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- The station's call sign history now shows it as WKDN, and that the change was indeed on December 21. (The FCC sometimes takes a few days to reflect reality when a call change accompanies a sale.) Also, the State College station is now WKDN-FM as of the same day. --WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 07:42, 29 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
