Re: New home for the Cubs: WBBM-780

I didn't realize this was an old post, at first. I don't know what its doing this high in the queue. However, I'm sure most of you know that the Cubs were only on WBBM for one year. Then they switched to sister station WSCR, where they are now. At that point, the White Sox had to leave WSCR. The Sox...

Re: Let's Play Pretend.....

Sounds like a wild idea with Real Rock. The "Goin' with the Girls" slogan would fit right in. They'd have to wear tube tops though, even in the winter! The WPAY calls are still being used by the FM in southern Ohio.

Let's Play Pretend.....

Hey Folks: I've been out of radio for years, but I still have a nostalgic interest. I have heard that 1520AM (Rossford) is being spun off from its FM (Waseon). Now, let's play a game and be creative. What would some you broadcast veterans do with the programming and marketing with this facility? Don...
