Interesting enough I heard a song I haven't heard on that frequency since it's beat Radio Days. Sylvester You make me feel (mighty real). I'm not sure if it was hacked or what's going on but I thought I would chime in.

When I shut my Barix instreamer off, it reverted back to the default Barix radio feed. Regular programming should resume in about an hour. I just wanted something on there so there wasn't dead air.

Also, yes I was syndicating WCAR on WMFN as a test. That station will have a new format soon.

Waaaay too much hard classic rock and nearly NO Motown. I'd say it's mostly 70s music every time I tune in. I have an elderly uncle who doesn't have internet or even cable. I've told him about the new station and he was overjoyed to finally have something worthwhile to tune into (he's a big fan of 50's and 60s). But he said I can't listen to it... I asked why? He said it's not oldies and it's aggravating to listen to because it's too hard. I reassured him that they are still working on it. I hope that is still the plan because I agree it's way too hard.
