Thoughts on the Current State and Potential Future of Detroit Radio
A radio provides instant free voice and music almost anywhere, with incredible potential. But a trip down the dial today offers not much more than Journey, The Eagles, Sean Hannity, and endless commercials for roofing contractors. That doesn’t have to be the inherent default. In past days Detroit ha...

Thanks; I always confuse the WCFS/WBBM-FM thing.MWmetalhead wrote: ↑Tue May 21, 2024 5:02 pm780 & 105.9 in Chicago have been reported on a joint basis for a long time. They haven't been listed on a separate basis for years. Remember, 105.9's calls remain WCFS. "WBBM-FM" belongs to their CHR sister station, B96.

Re: April Ratings
WBBM has a full powered FM. 780 isn’t even promoted during reports. WABC has an FM repeater on Long Island- not sure how much that factors into ratings. WBBM AM and FM are rated separately by Nielsen, with FM way down the list. In any case, are you trying to argue that WJR's 1.7 share is inevitable...

Re: April Ratings
WJR at 1.7, perhaps an all time low. Who is fired first? I still cannot fathom how this station was able to squander its golden history and massive signal with such uncreative and lackluster programming. WJR does well. They have strong billing numbers. Many advertisers and they hold their own. Drew...

Re: Classic Rock WLAV ties its all time record low AQH share in latest Nielsens
Right now they are playing Journey's "Any Way You Want it." Honestly, what kind of advertiser wants to reach the demographic of someone happy to have heard that song 10,950 times in the last 30 years, besides Mountain Dew?

Re: CKWW sounds like hot garbage
The audio level seems to jump up and down. No hum though. Hopefully it’s it’s fixed and not choked off so The Big 8 doesn’t die an undignified death… again. I agree - I like CKWW's playlist that sounds so much like early 70s CKLW, CanCon and all. My go-to station when working in the garage or doing...

Re: I am actually going to compliment WJR!
I really gave the "new" morning line-up a chance but it was so bland. Most days to work now I'm listening to Justin Barclay on WFDF, traffic on WWJ, or just surrendering and flipping to Sirius/XM music. I used to listen to Mitch while cooking dinner but can't anymore with his show ending at 6 instea...

Re: CKWW sounds like hot garbage
Have heard the hum for a few days. This afternoon it is half buried under noise like a very distant station.

WRCJ FM Dead Air this Morning
Got up late for work this morning because my radio alarm clock played silence at 6:00 AM - WRCJ 90.9 was not on the air. At 8:00 they were still off. Back on now; I wonder what happened. Have never considered that as a possible downside to a clock radio.

Time to give them a quiz with Dequindre, Lahser, Gratiot, and Schoenherr.

Please Help Decipher Mystery Word in 910 WFDF Promo
In a often run promo, WFDF runs a bit with a gag that someone wants to broadcast only out of the right channel of their new WOMC-HD2 repeater. At the end the announcer says "Where right is right, and left "________." It sounds like he's saying "an alsomato" which makes no sense of course. I've liste...

I'd add to those greats those who brought fine, tasteful, and interesting music to WJR: Jay Roberts, Karl Haas, Gene Elzy.GREATLAKESVET wrote: ↑Tue Jan 02, 2024 1:49 pmJ.P., Jimmy L., Hal, Mike and Oscar you are sorely missed.
