An impressive comeback for 105.9 Kiss FM.

I have not listened to that station at length in a while. I will have to see what's changed, if anything.

The last time I listened at length, I was surprised by the amount of 90's R&B and hip-hop product (mostly R&B) shared with 105.1.

The Detroit area radio ratings have come out for November. The Classic Hits station WOMC at 104.3 FM is number one
with a 7.2% share. WOMC is the only classic hits station in Detroit and I looked up a sample of their classic hits on line and
its 70's and 80's classic hits. I think somebody in Detroit should give WOMC classic hits competition perhaps mixing in some
60's classic hits with the 70's and 80's. WOMC needs competition. The second station was WNIC at 100 FM the station that
flipped to all Christmas music before Halloween. WNIC got a 7.0 % with Christmas music starting before Halloween. I didn't
think that many people in the Detroit area would want Christmas music so early but apparently I was wrong. The best of
the two classic rock stations WCSX at 94.7 FM dropped down to third place with a 6.1% share but they still beat their com-
petition WLLZ who dropped to a 2.8% share. The Urban A/C station WMXD at 92.3 FM dropped to a 5.8 % share but they
atleast remain respectable. The Ticket WXYT-FM 97 was fifth with sports and a 5.8% share. WWJ with all news was sixth
with a 5.7% share. That's a report on the Nielsen radio ratings for the Detroit area in November, 2021.

WNIC flipped after Halloween.

Lunacy blew up their low rated CHR in L.A. today for a simulcast of News KNX.
Might we hear WWJ-FM at 98.7 after all?

[Mega Hertz]

I would be cool with WWJ on FM. But where else would I hear pop and rap passed off as alternative and drunk Kermit the frog sounding LazBlow???

[MWmetalhead]

WWJ on 98.7 MHz is a matter of "when" not "if," in my opinion.

The exception would be if Audacy gets it's grubby little hands on 107.5 someday and decides to do the simulcast there instead.

I'll tell you all that I have really enjoyed Wheels 106.7 since my Sirius XM module stopped working following my car battery dying. They are playing quite a bit of early 90s alt gold. Going to jump back to Sirius as soon as I can get my car fixed, but it makes it more tolerable. 98.7 is pretty bad still even though they rarely interrupt songs now.

[Mega Hertz]

I caught WLLZ playing "Poundcake" by Van Halen. That is an auto-fucking-matic CRANK UP. Then followed that up with Green Day. There was a third song after that I stayed for, so a solid 3 song sweep is pretty good. Excellent work on the Hagar track!

[MWmetalhead]

Completely agreed it's great they played "Poundcake," but overall, I'm finding 106.7's playlist to be increasingly boring. That station has scaled back 90s era spins in recent weeks. They are playing more 80s.

Fault 98.7 has actually sounded pretty good (compared to normal for them) over the past week, excluding the crappy LazBlo show, of course.

[Mega Hertz]

Well, ya know MW, there is a definite hole for 80s rock and pop music in this town. I'm glad to see they are filling the void of Poison and AC/DC that, seemingly, no one else wants to touch.
