WCXI's official launch day is this Friday the 25th, sometime in the morning.
What will the actual format for 1160 be?

Still classic hits. While I'm working on WCAR, I'm going to start programming some of the weekend specialty shows so they're ready by launch.

What are some of the specialty shows will they be 70s, 80s and 90s related?

That's good news. A softer approach is better in my opinion. Would love a jukebox Saturday night show. Perhaps a request and dedication show (I know I'm living in the past).

Sometimes late at night I'll tune up and down the AM dial. The other night I actually heard a good WCAR signal. Stopped and took a listen for a bit and enjoyed the music selection and the imaging.
Some music on AM sounds just right when you're hearing it in a single mono earplug with a pocket radio. :)
I can rarely hear 1460 in the car so maybe I'll give 1190 its button.

Requests via email would work. I don’t think they are going to pay someone to take live phone calls on a Saturday night.

The harder stuff (to a degree) may work on 1160. 1090 should stick with 60s and 70s pop and soul, along with the deeper and lower charting cuts I’ve been hearing.

NESNerd427, WCXI 1160 is streaming on Tunein are you also going to have WCAR 1090 on that app as well?

Thanks for the heads up. I'll be listening.
