History

In October 1994, the MacDonald Broadcasting Company applied to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for a construction permit for a new broadcast radio station. After this and several other applications were "frozen" while the FCC determined how to allocate these permits, an auction was finally held in July 2010 in which MacDonald Broadcasting prevailed.[2] The FCC granted this permit on February 7, 2011, with a scheduled expiration date of February 7, 2014.[3] The new station was assigned call sign "WZTC" on March 16, 2011.[4] After construction and testing were completed in August 2011, the station was granted its broadcast license on September 30, 2011.[5]

In July 2011, the MacDonald Broadcasting Company reached an agreement to transfer the permit for still-under construction WZTC to Patricia MacDonald Garber's Playtime Media, LLC, for a token payment of $1.[6] The FCC approved the transfer on September 27, 2011, and the transaction was consummated on October 1, 2011.[2]

gollark: No, the issue isn't really JSON - node parses that at *gigabytes* a second - but the abuse of synchronous IO and monolithic file for everything.

gollark: And could theoretically be compressed pretty thoroughly, but this is irrelevant mostly.
gollark: As far as I can tell, not that I dared to read much of Epicbot's code, each person's chain data is independent.
gollark: ... store each person's chain in a different file (or database row)
