On January 11, PBRTV reported that Radio PA would cease operation in April. Instead, come April 16 Maryland Media One, owner of Maryland News Network, will assume operations.

“With the announcement of Radio PA closing it’s network in April, I was concerned with the affiliates that would lose content they rely on daily” said Maryland Media One President and CEO, Steve Clendenin. “I immediately explored options to assume the operations in Pennsylvania to keep the network alive. I am a firm believer in the state network broadcast model,” he explained. “However, like all aspects in radio broadcasting, the model needs to be flexible. Radio PA’s future depends on the ability to super serve our affiliates and advertisers that need to reach the entire state and our model allows for that.”

Maryland Media One, LLC is based in Baltimore.
