History

The WVLG Studio in the Spanish Springs Square of the Villages, Florida.

Originally licensed as WHOF in 1986 and was owned by Walker Heart of Florida Broadcasting and the station was licensed in Wildwood, Florida, but had a studio in Leesburg, Florida. In 1987, the station was sold to Jim Patrick and operated as WMZY and played contemporary Christian music and changed back to WHOF in 1988 and offered religious/talk programming. In 2001 the station was purchased by the Senior Broadcasting Corporation. In 2011, the station was sold for $750,000 to Villages Communications.[3]

gollark: I mean, natural ones yes, artificially designed ones I'm fine with. Although any sufficiently short one is probably going to turn up in some organism somewhere through sheer chance, even if it's not doing the same thing.
gollark: I think intellectual property definitely needs reduction. Copyright lasts waaaaay too long, patent weirdness basically stopped 3D printer development for ages, and trademarking-or-whatever "sky" is ridiculous. Also, you can patent some software stuff you probably shouldn't be able to.
gollark: In the UK, though, the situation is mostly that there are various different "ISPs", but they mostly use Openreach's network, which is sort of spun off from BT but not really. Although there are also cable-based ISPs (or, well, at least one?) and in big cities tons of high-speed fibre ones.
gollark: And sometimes cities and such are legally blocked somehow from running their own ISPs.
gollark: In some cases some local regulation stuff actively *creates* local monopolies.
