Cuts at Cumulus

[TC Talks]

Now I seriously wonder if 105.3 will be flipped, even though their ratings arent public, theyve been on a downward spiral for the past year and a half.

Name a station that has flipped in the last 5 years that resulted in more revenue?

"Flipped" was a tactic for operators who wished to be competitive in the 1990's. Today, it's simply a cost cutting measure.

When I was still in radio, flips were taken more seriously. It took a lot of money and time and promotion. Now? Just make a new logo, a couple new liners and positioners and load different music into the system. It doesn't matter now.

Among the staff Cumulus "released" was their chief engineer, Dave Grant, probably one of the best engineers in the country.

Someone needs to fix WLAV's weak signal in the Holland area, if that hasn't already occurred. Ever since the move to the 48th Ave site (WGVU-TV tower), signal strength has underperformed greatly versus predicted strength.
