Nashville’s longest-running independent radio station Lightning 100 and Tuned in Broadcasting, Inc. have agreed to sell the 100.1 FM frequency to Garth Brooks’ Sevens Network, LLC, pending approval from the Federal Communications Commission.

“This deal moves the 100.1 FM frequency to Sevens Network, but keeps Lightning 100 on the air at a new place on the dial,” shares Lester Turner, President of Tuned in Broadcasting, Inc/Lightning 100. “We are disappointed to leave our home at 100.1 FM but thrilled to have Cromwell Media Nashville as our partner in this transition. Listeners will need to tune to new frequencies but will continue to find the familiar Lightning 100 programming that they know and love.”

Turner purchased Lightning 100 Station in 1993 and has sat as President of Tuned In Broadcasting since then. Pivoting to Cromwell Media’s 106.3 and 102.5HD3, the new frequencies will keep the original programming of Lightning 100 on the airwaves, continuing the station’s legacy on new homes. Upon approval from the FCC when the sale closes, Lightning 100 will move to Cromwell Media’s 106.3 FM and 102.5 FM HD3 frequencies. Until that time, Lightning 100 will continue on 100.1FM.
