CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. – (ESPNCLARKSVILLE.COM) Following a year-long process of FCC applications and engineering studies, Clarksville-based 5 Star Radio has moved the dial position for ESPN Clarksville from 100.7 FM to 104.1 FM. The all sports format will continue to broadcast on 540 AM.
ESPN Clarksville features Mike & Mike in the Morning, Dan Le Batard, Jim Rome and other ESPN programming and is the flagship station for the Gov’s Sports Network, featuring Austin Peay State University Athletics.
“The new dial position is better for technical reasons and we believe it to be a more competitive spot for listeners to find us,” said General Manager Katie Gambill.
Station Brand Manager Scott Chase said the switch provides a larger megaphone for local sports. “With APSU’s new stadium and some promising new coaches, this improved signal is going to help more fans discover Gov’s athletics.” Chase said.
ESPN Clarksville will continue to broadcast Titans and St. Louis Cardinals games and has also added Mike Sinnott, who covers local and regional sports and photographer Michael Rios to provide local digital content to the station website.
Gambill said ESPN Clarksville will continue to broadcast on 100.7 FM as well as 104.1 FM until listeners are used to the change. “Then we’re planning to launch an all new music format in late summer,” Gambill said. The format for the new station will be announced in September.
