Delete. WP:TOOSOON article about a proposed radio station for which I can still find no reliably sourced verification that it has actually launched. WP:NMEDIA confers a presumption of notability on radio stations which meet both of two conditions, possessing a broadcast license and having an established broadcast history (i.e. actually operating), but articles have sometimes been created about new radio stations the moment their license approval was granted without regard to the latter condition. No prejudice against recreation in the future if and when the station actually launches -- but it's a lot less rare than one might think for a station to be licensed but then not actually launch before its license expires, so the time for an article about a new radio station is when it's actually on the air.

 * Delete We just don't do articles about construction permitted stations; has to air programming and have calls issued before getting an article here.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 20:43, 20 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete; unlaunched stations do not enjoy the presumption of notability assumed for established/operating stations, and it's too soon to determine if the station has, or ever will, launch (they have until November 10, 2016 to do so, barring an extension). There's nothing verifiable out there to indicate this station is broadcasting yet — it doesn't even have call letters yet! -- WC  Quidditch  &#9742;   &#9998;  23:16, 20 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete - per all of the above. Obviously no prejudice against recreation when it launches (would be good to note this in the close, since that seems to be a common sentiment here). &mdash;  Rhododendrites talk  \\ 22:59, 22 August 2016 (UTC)
