Re: Old soundchecks and TV commercials for West MI radio stations
Those are some phenomenal airchecks! It's amusing hearing a very young Dave Conrad do rock-leaning CHR. I also had no idea Pam Roberts of MUS fame worked at KLQ during its CHR era. My favorite station in my pre-teen years was 98 WGRD by far. When they went Hot AC around 1992, I was very unhappy. "Be...

Re: Detroit Nielsen numbers for radio - January 2023
We should all remember the short lived 7.9 share WJLB enjoyed at one point last year. That's a great example of what armchair pd is mentioning.

Re: Major snowstorm brewing
Bad ice accretion here. Two inch icicles hanging from all power and cable lines. All visible tree branches are ensheathed in ice. The temp dipping to 27 here overnight made things quite bad.
I have a skinny pine tree precariously close to my main power line that is tipping a bit.

Re: Detroit Nielsen numbers for radio - January 2023
95.5 is playing a lot of throwback songs in its playlist of late. Big hits one might expect to hear on 105.1. I think Screamin' Scott's arrival at CSX is a big boost for them. I'm unsure how many weeks in January he covered at CSX, though. I agree that there's not enough artist variety and too much ...

Re: Major snowstorm brewing
The NWS did a crappy job of adding Lenawee, Wayne and Monroe counties to the ice storm warning in timely fashion. The dumbasses waited until 6pm last night to upgrade those areas. It should've happened by late morning. The HRRR models at TWC and at WXYZ did a very good job with regard to placement o...

Detroit Nielsen numbers for radio - January 2023
Big gains for WCSX, WYCD, WKQI and WRIF. Best book for YCD in eons. They are playing less hip-hop country and a wider selection of library tracks (or at least a different selection) lately. I'm glad to see the numbers are responding positively. WLLZ, WDVD and WUOM saw nice boosts, too. WDZH and WDRQ...

Re: Hmmm,is the news drought at CBS62 about to come to an end?
Correct. Kudos to those of you who mentioned from the get-go she was destined for CBS 62. You were right on the money; my own prediction was proven incorrect.

Re: Major snowstorm brewing
The sleet shifted to light freezing rain and drizzle here a couple hours ago. I'm starting to see liquid rain drops turn to ice on my window screens, the white mush in driveway is now turning clear and freezing, and mini icicles are hanging from the bottom of my outdoor power and cable lines. 31 deg...

Re: Major snowstorm brewing
Looks just like that at my house. Getting a much needed lull right now. The surface of my patio must be 33 or 34 degrees, because the white coating of crap on the patio was mushy, not icy. There seemed to be little rhyme or reason geographically speaking as to which areas last hour were reporting sn...

Re: TV Antenna And Related Product Reviews At A Glance
Antenna Man knows his stuff!
I do wish he'd devote a bit more time to discussion of products with decent VHF-low reception ability, though.

Re: Major snowstorm brewing
Precip at my house is beginning as light sleet (SE Oakland County). Air temp is 31. I already see some minor accumulation in valleys of some roofs down the street.

Re: Major snowstorm brewing
TWC probably does have the most pessimistic of the forecasts I've seen, and they also show the heaviest concentration of ice a bit farther south than the other folks. The in-house model at WXYZ in Detroit shows a very similar prognosis. Biggest change to the forecast since last night is moderate to ...

Re: Old soundchecks and TV commercials for West MI radio stations
Which station? WKLQ?With a 10-share, why would you make a change? I for one was pissed at the time.
I'm not sure where their AQH share stood when they decided to make the transition to Rock 40 and then AOR.
WKLQ dumping CHR was almost certainly a big help to WSNX, I would assume.

Re: Major snowstorm brewing
Yup. The models in the daytime run shifted again, reducing snow totals and increasing ice totals for the M-59 corridor. Areas outstate along I-94 are now looking more favorable for significant icing, too. Hopefully mother nature has something different in store and we all wind up seeing something le...

Carolyn Clifford missing in action again both yesterday and today.
