3 Towers Broadcasting expanding to fourth Indiana market

3 Towers Broadcasting, LLC continues to grow its network of radio stations in Indiana.

On Aug. 1, 3 Towers Broadcasting, based in Shelbyville, will assume control of operations of WREB FM, located in Greencastle.

The sale from The Original Co. Inc. to 3 Towers Broadcasting is pending Federal Communications Commission approval.

“We’re very excited for this opportunity to be a part of Greencastle, Putnam County and the surrounding communities through WREB Radio,” said Johnny McCrory, co-owner and vice president of 3 Towers Broadcasting. “All of our GIANT fm stations have stressed entertaining, informative ties with our local news, sports and events coverage. We believe our listeners, website readers and social media followers will find value with ‘GIANT fm.’”

The company locally owns and operates WSVX (AM 1520 and 96.5 FM) as well as WGRN (106.3 FM) in Greenfield and WROI (92.1 FM) in Rochester – which was recently named Fulton County Chamber of Commerce Business of the Year.

In addition, 3 Towers Broadcasting operates online news sources Shelby County Post (www.shelbycountypost.com), Hancock County Post (www.hancockcountypost.com) and Fulton County Post (www.fultoncountypost.com), as well as the soon-to-be-created Putnam County Post.

 

 

WREB serves as a news and music service for west central Indiana on 94.3 FM.

Shelbyville’s local radio station has been around since 1961, originally branded WSVL. 3 Towers Broadcasting, created by Scott Huber, Johnny McCrory, Douglas Raab and Todd Glidden, took over operations in 2007 and is now expanding its “GIANT fm” brand to a fourth market.

“’GIANT fm is a branding image used by our stations today,” said McCrory, who continues to run operations with Huber following the deaths of Raab (in 2011) and Glidden (2013). “It provides an identity across our multiple radio frequencies as we communicate with thousands of people with varying occupations, concerns, interests and more. ‘GIANT fm” believes in being a vibrant part of the local community. We are plugged into our community and strive to be the reason our listeners are, as well.”
