- Delete Not a licensed radio station. Does not broadcast. No record that it was ever notable. No evidence that it ever broadcasted. Cullen328 (talk) 02:02, 2 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Apparently not a licensed radio station, and fails WP:ORG as well, Lacks multiple reliable and independent sources with significant coverage. Edison (talk) 02:22, 2 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete: There isn't a radio station licensed by the FCC with the KMEK callsign. If more information was provided, I could do a frequency search to see if the callsign changed (it happens), but there isn't. - Neutralhomer • Talk • 16:46, 2 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment With marketing hype like this, this and this, I don't think that this is a hoax. Internet chatter here indicates that 1080 AM is not licensed and somewhat available in Denver. We know from the news article that the station could not reach the next county (Jefferson Co., CO). FCC allows ultra-low power AM broadcasting, so there is also no reason to assume that this was a pirate (the marketing goal was internet traffic). Conclusion: there could be a story here, but if so it belongs in a [History of Denver radio] article. Unscintillating (talk) 19:11, 2 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete as it fails to cross the notability or verifiability thresholds. Not a licensed broadcaster and thus does not enjoy the general notability accorded to same. I have restored the text of the article to before the June 2010 unexplained deletion of most of the text and its single reference. - Dravecky (talk) 23:49, 2 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
