The FDOT surrendered the licenses for both stations to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) on January 9, 2017;[2] the availability of cellular and internet service was provided as the rationale for the service provided by the stations no longer being needed. The FCC cancelled the licenses for both stations on February 6, 2017.
