104.5 SNX satellite

Post by Deleted User 15062 » Sat Sep 19, 2020 12:34 pm

I thought Toiletto, Ohio and Lima, Ohio were the only ones that went with Premuim Choice. But with 1 single segue... it was obvious. iHeart is not doing anyone any favors by going satellite. SNX is definitely not local anymore.

Also cannot believe how "generic" they sound. Talk radio liners, with soft AC mixed with some urban. Is that what "CHR" is now? This can also include Hot FM and KFR. The format is not wide/eclectic anymore. SNX displays this well.

No TOH production. This is your flame thrower ID and slogan position of the while hour. Just had a plain voice, like any satellite talk station.

At least Ohio iHeart adds prod efx and piss poor vocoder/auto tune jingles (Late 1990's pop genre sound) to segues. Note- Jingle packages NEVER match the CURRENT music. Never had.

Teddybear. You didn’t get the memo? Radio is dead.

IMHO not dead, just ICU. Give me a transmitter that covers Kent and Ottawa Counties and in a year I'll produce a #1 radio station and a BIG bucket of money for everyone on staff.


If I Heart GR really wanted to save money, it would sublet two of it's three floors at 77 Monroe Center.

Reese, What is your crowdfund/gofundme page? I'll contribute!

Sad what they're doing with stations like WSNX.

What a great idea! Your hired.
The problem is finding a transmitter for sale.

Maybe K Love will buy WSNX and you can just send them money. Oh and they have fund drives 365 days a year, so its never a bad day to write a check. Thats the future of local radio. Yuck!
