The Miller Media Group, based in Taylorville, has announced that the Federal Communications Commission has approved its application to build a new FM signal at 107-point-7 in Sullivan, for its Central Illinois newstalk station WTIM.

Company president Randal J. Miller is hopeful that the new signal will go on the air this summer.

The new Sullivan FM signal for WTIM will cover all of Moultrie County, so that listeners there can hear WTIM's local news and sports coverage, Swap Shop, Cardinal baseball, NFL football and NCAA football and basketball.

WTIM at 107-point-7 FM in Sullivan will operate 24 hours a day, and join other FM signals WTIM has at 96-point-one in Taylorville and 107-point-5 in Shelbyville.
