Zusammenfassung:A historical multistation, single market switch in radio frequencies provides the context for a case study analysis of Contemporary Christian Music (CCM) radio.

Although signal strength and inheritance effects contribute to audience transference, station branding, progressive self-promotion, Web site status, and corporate ownership proved to be particularly significant factors.
