KDXY-FM, KDXY-HD2, KDXY-HD3, K298AV, K224DW, KEGI-FM, or KJBX-FM shall be entitled to rely in good faith, upon any documents presented by the representative seeking to collect the prize in lieu of the winner.

14) Winners are solely responsible for all applicable local, state and federal taxes.

16) The following are specifically related to E-contests and E-Mail Club promotions on www.thefox1049.com (KDXY), www.1075online.com (KDXY-HD2 and K298AV), www.eagle1005.com (KEGI) or www.themix1067.com (KJBX);
a) All appropriate information in required fields must be filled out or contestants will be disqualified.
b) To be eligible to win a prize, a contestant must reside within the listening area of KDXY-FM, KDXY-HD2, KDXY-HD3, K298AV, K224DW, KEGI-FM, or KJBX-FM, as defined within the exclusive discretion of KDXY-FM, KDXY-HD2, KDXY-HD3, K298AV, K224DW, KEGI-FM, or KJBX-FM management.
c) Any problems with the internet or email are not KDXY-FM, KDXY-HD2, KDXY-HD3, K298AV, K224DW, KEGI-FM, or KJBX-FM responsibility.
d) Contestants who attempt to register to participate on KDXY-FM, KDXY-HD2, KEGI-FM, or KJBX-FM’s websites may be required to produce a printed copy of proof of registration before being allowed to participate in the contest.
17) Due to the nature of our programs that are heard on-line over the internet, contests heard on the radio station’s internet audio stream are slightly delayed from the time the contests are heard on the broadcast station, and will be running behind the broadcast signal. Thus, all contests heard are delayed. This delay can last for as much as 30 seconds or more. This means that when Jonesboro Radio Group, KDXY-FM, KDXY-HD2, KDXY-HD3, K298AV, K224DW, KEGI-FM, or KJBX-FM contests are played that require a specific caller to telephone the radio station (such as "Caller number 10 when you hear the sound effect"), listeners to the on-line audio stream may be at a disadvantage in participating over those listeners who hear the contests on-air."
18) All giveaways and contests are void where prohibited by law. All local, state and federal regulations apply. As a licensee of the FCC and a trustee of the public airwaves, KDXY-FM, KDXY-HD2, KDXY-HD3, K298AV, K224DW, KEGI-FM, or KJBX-FM reserves the right to interrupt and/or discontinue any contest or promotion (and not award the offered prize) at the discretion of KDXY-FM, KDXY-HD2, KDXY-HD3, K298AV, K224DW, KEGI-FM, or KJBX-FM management if world events, the national mood, or public safety so warrant. KDXY-FM, KDXY-HD2, KDXY-HD3, K298AV, K224DW, KEGI-FM, or KJBX-FM reserves the right to disqualify any winner if the contest rules have been violated in any way. KDXY-FM, KDXY-HD2, KDXY-HD3, K298AV, K224DW, KEGI-FM, or KJBX-FM reserves the right to amend the rules to any contest at any time. All decisions of KDXY-FM, KDXY-HD2, KDXY-HD3, K298AV, K224DW, KEGI-FM, or KJBX-FM are final.
19) Although KDXY-FM, KDXY-HD2, KDXY-HD3, K298AV, K224DW, KEGI-FM, or KJBX-FM will make reasonable efforts to conduct its contests substantially as announced or advertised, KDXY-FM, KDXY-HD2, KDXY-HD3, K298AV, K224DW, KEGI-FM, or KJBX-FM reserves the right in extraordinary situations to change or modify the rules of its contests as exigent circumstances may require. In such cases, KDXY-FM, KDXY-HD2, KDXY-HD3, K298AV, K224DW, KEGI-FM, or KJBX-FM will amend the rules for that contest and broadcast the amended rules as promptly as possible. In such case, the contest will be conducted in accordance with the amended rules.
20) A copy of these rules are available during business hours at the KDXY-FM, KDXY-HD2, KDXY-HD3, K298AV, K224DW, KEGI-FM, or KJBX-FM studios, 314 Union, Jonesboro, AR 72401.
