I've heard unconfirmed reports that 101.5 The Eagle (KEGA) is being rebroadcast on Broadway Media's 104.7 Tooele translator. Is there anyone in the Tooele area that can verify this? Radio Locator, which admittedly isn't always accurate, states that 104.7 is the Tooele repeater for X96. Also, I found a post from 2020 on the 100.7 Bob FM Facebook page stating they were being rebroadcast on 104.7. I'm just curious as to whether or not Broadway is shuffling formats on its translator again.

Bob on 104.7/K284AY would make zero sense. 105.5/K288GY covers everything K284AY does and then some. Then again a lot of what Broadway does with their translators makes no sense to me.
According to their official FCC filings, K284AY was rebroadcasting KXRK from 2016-2021. The most recent filing was in October of last year. Bob could have been on an HD subchannel for all or part of that time, so the info isn't inconsistent. There's also no mention of 104.7 anywhere on The Eagle's site, and I would think there would be. That's the best I got.

A member of the "Utah Radio Chat" group has confirmed that Broadway's 104.7 Tooele translator is indeed rebroadcating 101.5 The Eagle. I still can't find any mention of the 104.7 frequency on The Eagle's website or their Facebook page. However, considering Broadway Media's tendency to shuffle rebroadcasts of their stations from one translator to another on a fairly regular basis, I wouldn't be surprised if The Eagle is just a placeholder for now. OTOH, maybe there's not a lot of X96 listeners in the Tooele Valley.🙂
FWIW, I noticed that KEGA now has DJ's on air from 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM weekdays. That must be a recent development, as it's the first time in several years I've seen any air staff listed on The Eagle's website.

I'm pretty sure Pat Garrett is their PD (pretty sure) and he posted that he was doing a remote in Toelle and to listen on 104.7 and 101.5 for all the fun, etc...
UPDATE: Pat is the PD and he confirmed 104.7 is theirs now.
