Say goodbye forever to \"Chicagoland's Ethnic Voice.\" WCEV 1450-AM, the time-brokered ethnic and foreign-language station licensed to west suburban Cicero, has been off the air since 2020. Now comes word from the Federal Communications Commission that the station's broadcast license has been canceled<\/a> and its call letters deleted.
