Re: WLLZ

It's a classic rock station. They play standard bearers of the rock genre, which generally means old music. The station was never truly all-in on being the "New generation of classic rock," and I always thought adopting that slogan was a stupid move since it was being attached to a brand that was be...

Saleh, a defense guy, has a defense to work with.
Perhaps the Lions don't know how to "coach up" the guys they have.

Re: September Ratings

My loose math suggests only ~67 percent of recorded listening belongs to the stations that were listed. Another ~4 percent probably belongs to WVGR, and probably ~10 percent belongs to the various LPFMs, translators, and non-comms that were unlisted. So my question is this - what accounts for the re...

Re: WLDR-FM

What's amazing to me is the station appears to have ZERO active online presence. I only found links to old pages from when the Q100.3 people were running the station via LMA.

Re: Brandon Roux sucks at his job

I haven't seen him on the air in quite a while, which is a shame. I do like him the best.

I sucked today. I thought 60 or low 60s but it's currently 68! It was 42 at this time yesterday. Amazing surge from a morning low at my house of 31.

Re: WRIF's audio sounds like shit again

Worn out Whitesnake song with crappy audio mixing is playing as we speak.

I do think the source audio (from the recording) is the issue here. Prior couple songs sounded decent to my ears.

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

Hiring retired anchors might be a good idea if (a) they are highly talented and can bring instant credibility, and (b) won't "re-retire" in a year and are willing to work for less money than which they were previously accustomed. Much easier said than done, obviously. Completely agree that the set c...

Re: Brandon Roux sucks at his job

First freeze for many suburbs tonight. Many areas (especially those that saw late day clearing after underachieving mightily on daytime highs) will see upper 20s or low 30s for overnight lows. NWS is several degrees too mild on predicted overnight lows for these areas. I think many northern suburbs ...

Re: Whitmer considers phased minimum wage increase

I must admit, that is a very surprising position for a powerful incumbent Democrat to take on the minimum wage!

Cannot remember the last time any sitting Dem wanted to postpone or cancel a scheduled minimum wage increase.

The sun popped out here beginning around 4:00 but the temp never got higher than 42. Still only 39 in Port Huron!

Re: WRIF's audio sounds like shit again

Damn right; the audio mixing / processing sounds worse than garbage in the case of Smooth Criminal.

High School radio stations have higher quality control standards evidently.

Smashed highs and buried bass do indeed seem common.

Re: September Ratings

I think that 2.6 is a couple tenths either side of the station's all time record low.

Bear in mind they were at a 3.6 just last month (all shares are based on trailing 3 month averages), so I'm not yet convinced this isn't simply a statistically flawed result.

Re: WRIF's audio sounds like shit again

That indeed is another song that sounds washed out thanks to their crappy processing.
