In December 2006, Aerco Broadcasting Corp. (Angel O. Roman-Lopez, president/secretary) reached an agreement to purchase WMIA from Abacoa Radio Corp. (Lirio Pirallo Rivera, president) for a reported sale price of $900,000. After several delays due to a complicated series of transactions involving other stations and Aerco Broadcasting, on January 18, 2008 Abacoa Radio filed a notice of non-consummation with the FCC officially terminating their application to transfer the broadcast license.
