1073 alternative Cleveland

[Deleted User 15773]

I'm talking about the iteration that occurred after Boom 107.3 / V107.3 (AAA formatted) went bust.

Yes after V107.3, the station switched back to a hybrid of smooth jazz and AC. My guess is WNWV get's divested to some religious group. Delmarva communications comes to mind as does the dreaded Educational Media Foundation.

Please no, lol. It’s the only station, outside of the former “Radio92.3” I’ve been able to tolerate in the ten years since I’ve moved out here.

WMMS is alright during the few times they’re playing music.

I agree. We can also probably add Bible Broadcasting Network and VCY America to the list.

VCY America was one of the biggest beneficiaries of the spectrum auction as they got millions to give up their TV station spectrum to channel share with another station in its home market of Milwaukee.

Neither has programming experience (neither did Mazur...see a trend?). Until a year ago Ursetti was in promotions hanging banners.

It's the CLE market. Why not hire an experienced rock programmer with a positive track record? Invest in the station. IMO this says otherwise. Then again the con-sultant makes the music decision. And, it's Rubber City aka We Pay Shit.

If 1073 is lipstick on the pig, then who is the pig?

I drove through Cleveland a few days ago. It’s better than lame JenY, I’ll say that.

If there is an Alternative Cleveland, what state is it in?

How does Cleveland not have a good rock station? That makes zero sense.

It's the birthplace of Rock and the home of the Rock Hall. I wonder that too.

For some reason, rock formats just don't seem to pop up like they used to. I mean, look at "Detroit Rock City", when it comes to newer/active rock (old AOR), we have...

*checks notes*

WRIF alone since...

*checks notes again*

1999.

So, yeah. Maybe it's a harder sell? Not enough good material to go around? Who knows.

We also have WCSX. But yeah, I get it.
