Re: Stunner!!! OM/PD & on-air personality Robbie Bridges is leaving WDVD
Maybe Andy Stuart will get the Detroit Cumulus Cluster**** in addition to Toledo? He could look into a morning drive simulcast with cutaways for traffic and weather, but I'm sure he doesn't want to jeopardize his top-rated morning show of 14 years on K-100 to prop-up 93.1? Does the Cloud have an "Ja...

Re: CBEF 540
Any reason CKWW couldn't move to 540 with a monstrous 50KW signal, just like the ole BIG 8 ??

Re: All Christmas Music
Move their Christmas format to the HD-1 and their old mainstream programming to the HD-2 and maybe some people might have a reason to figure out how to use the HD radio in their cars? That being said, I have the most sensitive FM tuner Kenwood sells, and none of the Detroit stations can hold the HD ...

Re: Country stations on AM from the 60’s and 70’s
WTOD, 5KW daytimer in Toledo, for one book beat heritage WSPD and was the highest rated country station in the whole USA- quite a deal with a daytimer! WCXI used to put a really decent signal into Toledo, and I could hear them in stereo AM on my 1990 Delco car radio- they were pretty high quality in...

Re: Let's Play Pretend.....
I end-up having to watch Normy Wamer and his two buddies Saturday nights when WNWO has no 11pm newscast, and "entertaining" might be the word for it, while I'm waiting for SNL to start. 1520 has a 'cigar pattern' reaches those North South constraints quite well, but their plan to make it a 10KW back...

Re: another WPON update
Why don't they file for a higher power directional? (besides cost)? They don't have to worry about 1st adjacent 1470 in Toledo anymore since Cumulus snuffed it out, although Jackson might still be an issue??

Re: SXM Holiday Traditions
Re-igniting this topic again 2 years later. I wonder if Holiday Traditions will get a decent spot with halfway decent bitrate, and stereo, unlike some years when they got a cruddy mono signal, and they were sponsored by the USPS? Haven't seen Christmas schedule yet for SXM, but I heard Andy Williams...

Rescan TV Channel Moves in Toledo
You heard it here first, WNWO is moving their RF signal on down the spectrum, and probably with less power, so the signal will be super sucky - thanks FCC and cellphone hogs. WNWO is to make the cut at 10AM on November 30th, so a 'rescan' will be required for your OTA TV, OTA TiVo's, and HD converte...

ION channel on 13.4
So, what's the verdict on ION now on OTA WTVG 13.4 subchannel? I get a little bit of digital artifacts, more than the lower resolution 13.3, but higher general quality than 13.3 overall 480 vs 720. WGTE has by far the best system to squeeze out 3 decent quality streams without digital artifacts. ION...

Re: Old cable lineups
In the 70's, when Buckeye has two cables and only 13 channels A/B, they did carry Storer's WJBK in their CBS days with cutie then Robbie Timmons. When WTOL had Tiger Baseball on, you had WJBK-CBS as a backup. What really torqued me off was that for the first 5 seasons of Saturday Night Live, WSPD/WT...

Re: Old cable lineups
Buckeye Toledo rarely showed NBC4 programming, but ran WSPD-TV NBC programming, once in a while Buckeye would remember to flip the switch so you could see the Detroit news on 4. This was before 13 switched to ABC as WTVG. For some reason they almost never pre-empted WXYZ, which was cool so I could w...

Re: JIM PRICE STINKS!!!
Can't we at least start a new annual Jim Price Stinks thread?
Question: who would you rather have instead (besides the great Paul Carey)?
I still miss the Shea's Sweater Puppies threads- where did she go to, and why no screen caps?

Re: SNL and The Donald
Dan Ackroyd is the probably the most under-rated of the SNL gang. His Jimmy Carter talking the guy down on drugs, ole Tricky Dick, but his Tom Snyder was dead-on with the smokes and the cackle chuckle. I liked his 3rd-person-Bob Dole routine too - "I'll fight you with one arm..." off topic: the two ...

Re: SXM Holiday Traditions
Turkeytop, you're right, Holiday Traditions was pretty short this year, not until December 5th, and then gone before New Years - I like the '12 days of Christmas rule' where you playout until Epiphany on January 6th. I heard 250 promos for the Elf Line, but only about 4 actual calls aired (and none ...
