CBE FM 89.9 Signal Issues

I’ve noticed lately in Macomb County that CBE-FM 89.9 is not as strong as it once was. Has the power been reduced from the 100,000 watt signal that it’s allowed to broadcast at? There is a lot of co-channel interference as well in my location in Shelby Township. Anyone else notice the signal degrada...

Re: Towpath to broadcast on 98.7

Hey Paul! We're still a go. CP is in hand, currently working on the financials to get on air. We've got 3 years to do it, hoping to be on the air sometime in 2025. We're mostly an open book about it, so feel free to message with any questions. Will the station be Oldies and if not what format? Will...

Re: BEASLEY MEDIA INITIATES 7% STAFF LAYOFFS

I wonder if we may see an eventual sale of any Beasley Detroit stations or translators.

Re: Japan, India decry Biden's description of them as xenophobic

They are both racing to the bottom. The recent photos of Trump have shown what appears to be an exhausted human. With his schedule it's no wonder. That is part of the liberal agenda, exhaust Donald Trump so he can collapse before November. So this is more than a second term race to the Whitehouse b...

Agreed. Don the Con is slipping fast.
Disagree. Joe is slipping fast. You’ve misread my post. Typical liberals put a twist on the story at hand.

Re: Your Clock May Not Be Accurate

I mentioned three other methods besides time signals. Most people use their cell phones for alarm clocks in hotels. They can also use a wake up call. You could also bring a small alarm clock and or portable radio with an alarm feature. A small one can easily be packed. I don't need an alarm clock o...

$75 a ticket? Are you freaking kidding me?
Cheaper than a Taylor Swift concert. For $75. you can be a Podelly. And that's not all $6.88 for a fee?

Re: Your Clock May Not Be Accurate

I'm a stickler for punctuality. Accurate time keeping is important to me. Although it seems to be less important to the world at large. Hotel rooms don't even have a clock anymore. They say guests are embarrassed to have a clock in their room. Do you own a watch? He doesn’t need one. He steals the ...

Re: Michigan Radio drops "Radio" from its name

Basically, public radio (and TV) don't need government subsidies. Time was they did but they don't now. They get money from listeners and they get even more money from corporate underwriters. And they get money from what for all practical purposes are infomercials. In most markets, they have fancy ...

Re: March PPM's

That 9.1 share for WNIC is a PPM era record high for them (and for all music based stations) outside of Christmas music season. Extremely impressive stuff. The 4.2 share for WDZH is also impressive considering how extremely low budget that station is! None of its programming staff is based in Detro...

I loved his role as Oliver on Green Acres. He must have been the last living cast member.
Great actor. Where did he find the time to play the guitar? Wasn’t he always busy on the farm? Green Acres is the place to be.
