Michigan Radio & TV Buzzboard

So I spent about an hour listening to Radio-GPT's sample programming. It's a pretend oldies station in Springfield. Which Springfield? Who knows.. Aside from if it's listenable or not it has one big economic flaw. IMO. It relies heavily on liners between songs promoting local things of interest. The ...

Has the MeTv move to Wilx been delayed?

Putin's Russia will put reporters in jail for up to 15 years for saying things about the invasion of Ukraine that it doesn't want people to hear. They're even restricting access to Facebook and other forms of social media. Might be time to resurrect some old school technology. Like shortwave radio ...

Erik "O's", bumper to bumper club. Monday through Friday, 2 til 6, on the big 13. 1320, WILS, Lansing. It's the first thing you heard on your way home from school everyday. I can remember the Dave Clark Five coming to Lansing and Erik playing the pick of the week "Catch us if You Can." Thanks Erik ...

The thing that confuses me is why I keep seeing stories on the local tv news that start out with video of a bunch of cop cars and/or fire/EMS vehicles in a neighborhood. Then the voice over by the anchor says something to the effect of "police were out in large numbers in the xyz neighborhood on ...

It's fun to remember the old days of small-market MOR radio. Every station had a unique flavor suited to the local audience it served. I loved tooling around the dial and checking out stations like WCER, WBCH, WRBJ, WFYC, etc. The banter and the features were as interesting as the music mix. It was ...

I was about say that big winner seems to be NPR because the Wlnz tower is west of Wkar Newstalk 102.3's. Which I thought would give NPR better coverage from to the west side of metro Lansing. But the coverage maps look pretty similar. And as stated previously, I also get a pretty good signal from ...

Thanks for the update. I knew things had changed operationally.

So I'm still confused. Isn't there an actual master control anymore? It seems as though the feed from Fox could be brought in via satellite or over the internet or in a worst case scenario picked off an antenna and relayed from the Lansing or Detroit Fox affiliate and patched directly into the MCR ...

Sorry for the long rant. But my affiliation with Lansing Community College Radio goes back to the mid-1970s when it was a carrier current station heard only on campus. It's where my 40 plus year career in radio and television production began. So here goes. Does anyone know or has anyone seen a ...

I live in Lansing but I have Flint's Fox 66 as a backup to Lansing's Fox 47 on my TVs. However this week my TV is airing programming from the Charge Network and something called the TBD network on 66.1. Is it just me and my goofy TV or has something changed? BTW Charge isn't so bad. Older action ...

Does anyone know when and if FM translators for Lansing AM stations such as WVFN WXLA WJIM will be going on air? I know all of these made apps for FM freqs. I thought they were approved. I could be wrong.
