Re: Moody Radio 89.3 to cancel its local morning show

Although I am a H*** fan of WMB eyes programming throughout the day, I cannot say the same about their morning show. Great group of people yes. Morning, show talent, no. And to go national with it.🤷‍♂️ I think you lose a lot of listenership. I think morning shows need to be local will they have local ...

I remember the fish on 106.7 in Chicago in the early 2000s.

Re: KLove in Grand Rapids?

I grew up in West Michigan, Northwest Muskegon County to be precise. I currently live in Rockford, Illinois and these are the list of K-LOVE or Air-1 stations that I can get locally, whether it’s a city grade signal or a fringe signal. You actually can’t go anywhere in northern Illinois and not have ...

Re: WCSG catapults to first place; WHTS and WTNR reach all time record low shares

Thanks for the reply. Do you think the main problem that thunder country has with their ratings is stick location? You’ve mentioned before that they don’t get the penetration and too much of Ottawa county that they need and therefore they struggle with market share. Or, does B 93 command such res ...

Re: WCSG catapults to first place; WHTS and WTNR reach all time record low shares

Good morning guys! I know I throw some weird ideas every once in a while on here but most the time I’m just lurking because I don’t know enough about the ins and outs of the business that you guys do but I’ve always been interested. Several years ago, I was curious as to how a station like KDRB in De ...

Re: Remembering former radio stations that introduced you to great artists

Great topic! I can still remember hearing Tom Petty as a kid on Rock 95, WRNF? 95.3 out of Whitehall or Muskegon in the early 80's Yes, WRNF. I visited their studio several times during their tenure as a kid. It was on the corner of blank Road and White Lake Drive. I can't remember any specific ...

Re: Updated ratings!

Good afternoon! A couple of years ago I had mentioned that the format at KDRB in Des Moines would be an option for West Michigan. I know that since I mentioned this they have taken 106.5 in Kalamazoo to a jack FM format. So, would this still be an option for let’s say 96.1? “ you’re riding the BUS do ...

Re: Old soundchecks and TV commercials for West MI radio stations

Metalhead, yes, I was referring to KLQ. Why on earth would you flip formats when you have a 10 share in the market? I mean, would you see KFR in Kalamazoo or B93 flipping?

Re: Old soundchecks and TV commercials for West MI radio stations

KLQ ran a couple of contest during the overnight hours where they would play snippet of a song and you had to call in with the title and artist. They called it the late night quickie.
You could only win every 30 days. Sorry for the confusion.

Re: Old soundchecks and TV commercials for West MI radio stations

Remember the commercials well. Remember the station and studios just as well, when it was on Giles about 1/2 mile east of Whitehall Rd. Won plenty of trivia contests with the help of my dad. I lived and breathed KLQ after about 14 years of age which was 1985 and throughout high school which I ...

Many of the same captures that you had I also had. 102.9 WHQG was coming in over WYHA into Saugatuck and were fighting until the Adams Street exit on 196. WLAV was nearly similar in fighting with ...
