Re: WCXI

WCXI yesterday and today (Christmas Eve & Christmas Day) seems totally overdriven and distorted. How does it sound to you?

I do remember that WXON was on Decker Road. Just curious is that building still there?
That building at 100 Decker road survived until a couple of years ago and then it was demolished and replaced with a comfort care place.

Re: Local TV in Detroit

Does anyone remember when Channel 62 was WXON from Walled Lake? I started working at WXON Channel 62 part-time in 1971 for a time. I ran camera on Saturdays when we taped a few religious programs. Later I ran master control a few times but that was when they had switched to Channel 20. Both assignm...

Re: 1090 AM

I thought I would tune to 1090 tonight (Saturday, Oct. 16, 2021) at about 8:30 PM and I received a fairly decent signal. There is no way that WCAR could be back up and running but I thought I would listen for a while until I could identify what I was hearing. It turns out that what I was receiving ...

Re: Which Detroit station will make the bold move back to the city??

I can’t see 7 doing it, because they are way too attached to Broadcast House. I can’t see 56 doing it. I think it’s either going to be Fox 2 or CBS62/CW50. My bet is on Fox 2. Why? I think Fox Television Stations would dish out the cash for it, and Fox 2 seems to have coverage more focused on the c...

Re: lack of radio posts

Recently the posts I've seen are all about TV and a bunch of nonsense. Radio is an exciting subject and yet you Detroit area participants aren't discussing all of your radio options. Your point has merit. Sometimes we get off track from Radio & TV and that includes me. I think radio doesn't change ...

Re: Comcast Outage

At Thursday morning 3:49 AM my Cable and Internet went out after the storm. As of this post it is still not working. When I tried to call Comcast I can't past the phone system. I went in to one of their stores yesterday and asked about it and they said, " we know there's a problem but we don't don'...
