Exhibits
Exhibit 2
Description:
REQUEST FOR EXTENSION OF SILENT STA

ON 2/4/14, WLWB(AM) NOTIFIED THE FCC THAT IS WENT OFF-THE-AIR ON 1/26/14, DUE TO EXTENSIVE DAMAGE BY A THIRD PARTY'S HEAVY EQUIPMENT TO THE STATION'S GROUND RADIAL SYSTEM, AND REQUESTED SPECIAL TEMPORARY AUTHORITY ('STA') TO BE SILENT, WHICH WAS GRANTED THROUGH 10/29/14. WLWB(AM) HAS ESSENTIALLY COMPLETED ALL OF THE PHYSICAL REPAIRS TO THE GROUND RADIALS BUT STILL MUST RE-ESTABLISH ITS PROGRAMMING LINK, AND ALSO IS AWAITING A LICENSED ELECTRICIAN TO MAKE THE FINAL ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS, WHICH THE STATION EXPECTS TO COMPLETE SHORTLY. THEREFORE, WLWB(AM) REQUESTS AN EXTENSION OF UP TO 30 DAYS TO ITS STA TO REMAIN SILENT.
