5x expanded by PlanetJuice (talk). Self-nominated at 00:02, 30 June 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Jeffersonville station; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]

Added ALT1. Perhaps that is a bit safer since the source doesn't explicitly state that the station closed, only that its service ended. PlanetJuice (talk • contribs) 00:13, 30 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
