Re: WDVD sounding better than ever
Even the audio processing on Cool 106.3 in Sarnia sounds better than the Beasley owned stations to me.

Re: Global Sarnia-Oil Springs
Sarnia's high cable penetration might have kept TVO from adding a local transmitter.

It looks like the work is in progress.

I'd guess that any big changes to the radio stations will be made sometime in April.

Re: Solar Eclipse April 8
In Ontario, clouds blowing in from Lake Erie could ruin it. A worst-case scenario would be to have a major low come into the southern Great Lakes region that day.

I'm thinking of going to Fort Erie, ON. It's right across the river from Buffalo.

Re: Bell Media to sell 45 radio stations.
The latest Bell Media cuts are all over the news in Canada. There are going to be 4,800 layoffs. I also found a link from last year. In the past eight months there have been a total of 6100 layoffs from Bell Media (including the latest ones), and nine radio stations went off the air altogether. http...

Re: Bell Media to sell 45 radio stations.
The HTZ-FM online stream could use some help when it comes to sound quality. A Hamilton Spectator article says that some name changes to some of the radio stations are coming, but the formats will remain for now. https://www.thespec.com/news/bell-media-cuts-mean-ownership-change-looms-at-hamiltons-b...

Bell Media to sell 45 radio stations.
"Not a viable business anymore" At least not to them. Too bad the London and Windsor radio stations are being held onto. That headline got my hopes up. https://www.stcatharinesstandard.ca/business/not-a-viable-business-anymore-bell-media-selling-45-radio-stations-amid-layoffs/article_41d0268e-b07f-5...

Re: Tropospheric ducting on Saturday 2/3
92.5 WVKS and 93.5 WRQN from Toledo are clear tonight. I have the HD signal from WIOT coming in and WIOT-HD-2 is a Sports station known as "The Gambler". The same broadcast is on 1230 AM in Toledo which is WCWA. I'm also hearing 89.7 WNOC from Bowling Green which is just 5300 watts. Equipment: Sange...

Re: WLLZ Continues Doing It
It all comes down to the company behind the radio station. I HEART does some formats right including Talk, A.C. ,CHR, Urban, and even Sports sometimes. Rock is not one of there strengths. Even winners like Beasley have what I would call a corporate playlist on WCSX, but it’s working out for them.

Re: Blackburn’s Cool FM’s
When CHKS-FM became Cool 106.3 I found it to be a little bit better than the final years of K 106.3. From the 1999 sign on up until about the mid 2010s, K 106.3 was at its best. I also like the music on 98.1 CKLO from London a little bit better than what is on 95.1/100.7 and 106.3 right now. I don't...

It might be Oldies at first, but I can see him gradually phasing in Ethnic Programming as time goes by. The Southern Ontario board has been discussing the future of the radio stations.
