Re: W15DF/W19EZ Cadillac

I wonder what will air on these? ATSC 3.0 broadcasts perhaps?

I was too lazy to look up RF 19, but RF 15 seems to have ownership in common with TV 9&10.

Re: WLLZ

I listened this morning, and I will say this much, it exceeded my expectations. The segments do seem to be live or nearly live.

Mr. Innes apparently opens mic on 106.7 when his Nashville station is in music and vice versa.

Still, I think 94.7, 97.1 and 101.1 have little to worry about.

Re: Detroit Pistons 2021/22

I doubt it is sheer coincidence that numerous key players are "injured" or healthy scratches. The coaching staff is giving two way and 10 day contract players extended minutes, in part to foster their development and to gauge their abilities. It's a great idea. Such players can and should be playing...

Re: WLLZ

There has been some truly boring to downright terrible radio in mornings on 106.7 FM through the years. Dave Fuller's morning show was unlistenable, Davis & Darla were about as interesting as watching paint dry, but the worst show to ever air on that station was the Chad Show during the station's "1...

Re: Detroit Pistons 2021/22

Man, the Pistons coaches are trying to lose games by resting or scratching key players (to preserve lottery standing), but darn it - it ain't working! Saddiq Bey scored 31 points in just 22 minutes of playing time. No Cunningham, no Grant, no Joseph, no Bagley - yet they win another game on the road...

Re: Blake Mathews

Would make sense. His role at channel 11 in DFW was temporary; he was filling in for someone on maternity leave. He previously worked weekends at KHOU in Houston (a Tegna-owned CBS affiliate). His entire forecasting career has been spent in deep south markets (College Station/Bryan, Jacksonville, Ho...

Re: Ford's 1.5L turbo engines are shit boxes

Ah, it's an Ecosport. That explains it. That vehicle either has a 1.0L (yes, you read that correctly) 3-cylinder turbo or a 2.0L naturally aspirated four cylinder. The naturally aspired 2.0L is a much better motor than the turbo charged 1.0L, which indeed is a shit box of an engine. Ford has discont...

Re: Will Smith Slaps Chris Rock; Adds to Black Award Shame

I hope not; his career shouldn't be ruined over one bad moment for which he has apologized.

(Granted, even if he never had a lead role in a film ever again, he probably would still make plenty of $$$$ from royalties associated with his past work.)

The OP on this thread was about Fox News, not the other networks.

Annoying clicking noise in WRIF audio chain

I'm hearing closed loop type interference on 101 WRIF on two different receivers in the house. An annoying fuzzy "pop" or click can be heard about every few seconds. Been happening since at least Friday evening. Perhaps their head of engineering doesn't want to be bothered on the weekend? WRIF has l...

KROQ is absolutely kicking ass this weekend!

They have become a far superior station to our lame Alt 98.7.

Re: (APRIL FOOLS) WHNE adds Rewind TV, returns to UHF thru channel sharing

Low band VHF is inherently "noisy" in Urban areas, like AM radio in a way. Strong signal is necessary to overcome the noise floor. I remember the silver or yellowish diagonal lines that used to dance across the screen when watching WWMT in West Michigan from multiple homes in the Grand Rapids area i...

Re: WCAR, Dark ?

Well, legally speaking, that's what would be required.

I, for one, am not confident the station is operating legally right now.

The only STA filed was the one from last December requesting stay silent ability for 90 days due to the transmitter fire.

Where does that leave Trudi? Will they push the lineup back. Podell on from 6-10pm? I said Anne is moving to weekend middays, not weekday middays. The rest of the weekday lineup, I presume, will be unaffected by the change in A.M. drive. Yeah, I'm not sure what this move accomplishes, Mega. If Mr. ...
