 On December 31, 2012, Chicago Public Media took control of the purchase of the frequency and began to simulcast its Vocalo programming broadcast from Navy Pier in downtown Chicago.Vocalo was to eventually open a community bureau in Little Village/Pilsen, where it can conduct community training and remote broadcast.Along with these changes Vocalo would add Spanish-language programming to its regular programming on Sundays (according to a press release) with support from existing community programmers and in partnership with several Spanish-language community media partners.
