I noticed just now while scanning the dial 98.3 W252BX is MUCH clearer and booming in Windsor. Even with a RDS display "Religious_Talk". Anyone notice any change in receiption?

Steve79

Both have EXTREMELY weak, barely audible signals here in west Windsor. Absolute garbage. Can't figure out why they don't put the oldies on 1090???

Looks like kiss fm and format will be sticking around for awhile with the new ownership. They have designed a new logo and updated all social media platforms ... Beasley must be okay with the mediocre ratings.
What an uneventful sale/take over...

Steve79

I'm still shocked that Beasley is keeping the formats of the newly acquired stations from Radio One. Still puzzled by this. 105.9's ratings are not good at all and they are leaving it untouched since the acquisition. Same goes for Praise.

So in Canada, can you run your own "LPFM" on your own, or what?

I don't think so, but I'm not sure. I've often fantasized about having my own little station lol.

This station has been on the air for years... I'm talking well over 10 years. originally on 87.9 and then moved to 107.9 until W300DI signed on and they moved back to 87.9. They are never consistent with operational hours, and sometimes its off the air for days. I get them in west Windsor and loose ...

Now positioned as " The best smooth R&B and old school" the playlist has changed as well. 90% of the songs are softer R&B with a few upbeat songs. They kept the same logo and have transferred the website to Beasley's server. The Detroit Praise Network has hit a few rough patches with dead air for th...

**UPDATE As of this morning the station sounds COMPLETELY different. Less R&B lean and I'm hearing many artists I have not heard in a long time.... Some tracks have not been played since launch. The last played feature on their website has been down for awhile and not being updated. But definitely n...

I have been listening to this station daily until a week or so ago. I got tired with the extremely tight urban leaning playlist. Certain songs are played 3 to 4 times a day and it drives me up a wall. Bon Jovi - I'll be there for you. Prince - ( Kiss, when doves cry ) Michael Jackson ( at least 2 so...

I don't hear any difference in the sound of the station whatsoever. Same VO talent/Station ID's, and the evening love show was always there, nothing new. I have a tough time understanding Beasley taking over and are leaving everything the same and not making it their "own" .... Why would a broadcast...

With Nash's low ratings, and a growing need for a party station/Rhytmic AC/Classic Dance station in the D, I think Now is the time to break out the old 93.1 the new DRQ tracks and bring back a station the plays feel good music from back in the day.
Would love this to happen!

Steve79

I agree. 100.3 sounds awful. I suspect equipment issues.

Steve79

Any updates on this sale!?

Just noticed 106.7HD2 changed formats from smells like the 90's to rhythmic top 40 as WiLD 106.7. Also the oldies 106.7 Detroit's wheels HD3 is gone.
This wild 106.7 makes me scratch my head... They have WKQI, WJLB.... Isn't there a better niche/under served format they could have put on the HD2?
