The team on Monday announced a partnership with newly-revived WTKI-AM that could ultimately result in the Stars being available on at least four different signals.

One of those signals, and possibly two, will be on FM.

"That's huge," Stars general manager Buck Rogers said.

The games can be heard on WTKI-AM (1450) and sister station WEKI-AM (1490) in Decatur as well as WTKI's FM signal at 92.9, which is expected to be online before the season stars April 8.

WTKI station owner Fred Holland also said efforts are being made to establish an FM signal at 94.7 in Decatur.

The Stars had no radio presence last year for the first time in their 25 years in Huntsville. The games could only be heard over the Internet at HuntsvilleStars.com.

At the time, Rogers cited expenses for dropping off the air but expressed the hope of returning to radio in 2010.

Rogers and Holland credited STAA client Chad Anderson (left) - the new voice of the Stars, replacing fellow STAA client Brett Pollock - with making it happen.

"We brought in someone outside of the organization who can look at it differently," Rogers said. "Sometimes, that's what you've got to do. Chad walked into our office and we were trying to make it work and we were hitting brick walls.

"Chad grew up here and he's got experience and he knows how to go in and knows who to talk to. We hit brick walls in a lot of those areas and Chad went and got it done."

Said Holland, "Chad gets the credit for putting a lot of this together. He brought us together and got the thing moving."

Anderson, who turns 25 later this month, was simply looking for a broadcasting job. He hosted a Saturday sports show on WUMP-AM while doing an internship but said he considers himself "a play-by-play guy."

He talked with Mick Gillispie, the radio voice of the Tennessee Smokies baseball team and a college classmate at Alabama, and Gillispie suggested Anderson check into the Stars' situation.

After sending Rogers a couple of e-mails, Anderson simply showed up at the Stars' offices at Joe Davis Stadium one day this winter and the radio wheels began turning.

"Fred was all for it," Anderson said. "Once we did that, that was it. We worked out the deal and it all came together."
