Without warning, northwest suburban Harvard lost its radio station after 53 years on the air.

Kovas Communications pulled the plug Saturday on WMCW-AM (1600), which most recently had been airing business news.

The move was the latest step by Kovas to free up the top of the dial and reduce interference for its WONX-AM (1590) in north suburban Evanston.

Kovas' west suburban WKKD-AM (1580), which simulcast WMCW's signal, is expected to return to the air with some other version of talk. It's slated to move from Aurora to Silvis, Ill.
