Re: Anyone covering the debate tonight??

The Dems must be a little anxious, because now they're bringing in the heavy hitters:

Re: Don't download Android 13!

On my phone, if I go into network settings and deactivate "automatically select network," I can see the signal strengths of all major carriers. TMO is the only carrier where I'm able to receive any 5G signal (albeit mediocre to poor) indoors. All of 'em deliver equal or nearly equal 4G strength (fai...

Re: New digital converter

Is the channel 12 in question WJRT near Flint? I ask because there is also a channel 12 in the Traverse City area. Paul, does your converter box or indoor antenna contain an integrated amplifier? If not, you may want to give RCA's indoor amplified antenna a try. Found it for $37.99 on Amazon (new) b...

Re: PARTY 103.3 Over/Under

He sure was! He always went by Tim Hartley on the air, at least in West Michigan.

If I'm not mistaken, his was the very first live voice heard on the station.

He worked weekends at WGRD previously.

Re: WTF, Loco 4?!!!!

I think the quality of channel 4's newscasts has gone downhill over the past 90 days.

The newscasts have a generic, sterile feel to them now. Much of the personality has been sucked out of them.

Re: PARTY 103.3 Over/Under

Indeed! The Whip in Muskegon, MI had a stockpile of good (in some cases, great) air talent at least. The whole business plan made zero sense, though, much like 103.3 in Toledo. A dance remix / CHR hybrid was the WRONG format for the territory that signal covered. Tower was located about 35 miles nor...

Re: Anyone covering the debate tonight??

I'm inclined to agree with km1125. A lot of folks will be casting ballots between now and October 25, the scheduled date of the only debate that will be televised in SE Michigan. Debates definitely matter. It's why Jeb Bush floundered in 2016's primaries, it's partially why Dick DeVos performed so p...

Re: Anyone covering the debate tonight??

No question the debate helped Dixon, which was expected. Dixon has no experience in Lansing and so a constant attack position was expected. Whitmer seemed a little dazed at times at all the attacks despite spending millions on ads doing the same thing to her opponent. Agreed. Dixon more than held h...

Re: WTF, Loco 4?!!!!

How lame. Anything to compel us to download their cheesy streaming service. WWJ, WJR and even WFDF carried the debate live. I listened on the radio. Clickondetroit.com was streaming it live, too, but at 7:28, the debate was preempted for the live lottery drawing. I gave up at that point and listened...

Loco 4+ just dumped out of the debate to show the live lottery drawing. What a joke.

It's completely disgusting that no TV outlets are carrying it in Metro Detroit.

Fuck all of 'em.

Kudos to the AM radio stations airing it live.

Re: Hmmm,is the news drought at CBS62 about to come to an end?

An impressive hire, I must say. WPVI is a strong ABC O&O. Very interesting that two of the recruits have come from the Philadelphia market.
