Re: K'zoo / MKG / BC - Spring '19 Nielsens
About Jack: have they even done anything to promote it? When I was out there, I didn't see any billboards or any sort of advertising about the station. You'd think they'd want to promote the hell out of it... It's a shame, because I think the station sounds pretty damn good. Sent from my Pixel 3a X...

So, taking into account what you guys said, We're down to WKZO and WIBM as the last two standing.

Re: Longest Tigers Affiliate?

Re: WKZO nighttime signal
Being in one of the nighttime nulls and trying to listen to the tigers on 590, I can confirm that they are back on the directional.

Longest Tigers Affiliate?
I tuned into WKZO to listen to the Tigers game, and I heard them talk about how they have been broadcasting the Tigers for over 50 years. So, being the history buff, I wondered if there was anybody who's been doing it for longer. I know that Fetzer owned the Tigers and WKZO in the 50s, but I think t...

Re: Fall 2018 Nielsen Audio #'s for Kalamazoo
