Re: Black diamond broadcasting
Those stations were family owned for a long time weren't they?

KISS "Black Diamond" (from their debut 1974 album) is one great song!!!
Re: Black diamond broadcasting
I worked there for a while. The owner was a great guy and took care of his small staff. Had fun while there.
Re: Black diamond broadcasting
WMPX 1490 was originally WMDN, owned by the Midland Daily News.
Is THAT where they got the idea for the 486-SX?

No overlap in city grade signals.
Ask not what your country can do FOR you; ask what they are about to do TO YOU!!

Re: Black Diamond Broadcasting
I would actually think a simulcast of wgfn classic rock the Bear would work better. Call it Michigans Classic Rock station. Insert some local news and information and sell ads like crazy.
Re: Black Diamond Broadcasting
It looks to me like WUPS, WMRX, WTWS, and WMPX City Grade Contours are completely separate from the rest of the stations, including WGFM, which is closest to 70 dBu overlap with WUPS. The best maps easily available are on fccdata.org, and they are not easily matched up by scale and detail, and have much lack of map detail. One way or another, I'll try to get my old computer and old software, which is timelessly useful in showing contour overlap, working. Otherwise, I may have to spend upwards of multiple tens of thousands on new software and equipment.
If they plan to serve the Tri Cities, they need higher power and more centrally located facilities, and I don't see just serving Greater Midland as a good option. MacDonald and Cumulus own most of the centrally located and powerful facilities.

Oh my goodness... This has been real enjoyable reading!
Re: Black Diamond Broadcasting
My favorite easy listening station is from Black Diamond, 106.3 MAC-FM
So it doesnt surprise me If 97.7 suddenly becomes more easy listening like 106.3 in Mackinaw is, giving a lot of the same demographic is in Gladwin, Harrison, Houghton Lake Areas where 97.7 comes in best.
