Bruce F. Elving (April
19, 1935 – July 24, 2011)
was a publisher, FM-radio
enthusiast, DXer,
and college professor from Duluth,
Minnesota.
Elving
published FMedia,
a monthly newsletter
updating the FM
Atlas,
compiled from Federal
Communications Commission (FCC)
and Canadian
Radio-television and
Telecommunications
Commission (CRTC)
data, along with information
contributed by subscribers.
Publication of FMedia began
in 1987, continuing until
mid-2007, when Elving
announced that he was
looking for a hobbyist who
would take over the
newsletter under new
ownership. The publication
remained out of print for
several months, until Elving
eventually created a
multi-month issue to catch
readers up with the changes
in station data. Elving's
eldest daughter, Kristine
Stuart, tookn over FMedia in
January 2008, with Elving
taking on a new role of
mentor and contributing
editor. In March 2010
Kristine published the last
issue of the newsletter,
when it again went out of
print. |
