Ha! I wondered where Ron DeCastro landed...

iHeart did this in Asheville for almost a week. It kind of sucks for Fort Myers which is a completely different market. Why do they care about Tampa? Same goes for Sarasota.

Tampa and Sarasota ar pretty much the same market. They overlap. I often listen to Sarasota stations when we're in Florida.

Radio: Both WFLA and WHBO have coverage of the Hurricane. WFLA sounds like the main News station in that part of the State.

Tampa and Sarasota are the same TV market, but are separate radio markets (with some overlap between signals)
