Re: No Detroit CHR from 1994-98?

95.5 was in the upper echelon as measured by revenue throughout the 90s, so I definitely agree. Even after Purtan departed, revenue remained strong. 93.1 eventually throwing in the towel on AC reinforced the sensibility of the decision to go with a workplace friendly format at 95.5. you will have t...

Re: No Detroit CHR from 1994-98?

I remember 95.5 making a big change in 89ish. I recalling phoning in a request for Batdance by Prince back then and being told they no longer play that. Was that the change from CZY to KQI? About August 1989 they made the change from CHR to Hot AC. since they were basically HOT AC during Purton's s...

Re: Could 98.7 flip to classic country as a flanker for WYCD?

getting rid of the Church of Lazlo was a good start
the music sounds much better than it was a year ago
it's a niche in this market but anything is better and Queen 3x a day

think anyone else will try country after this station goes Jesus?
WYCD will be pulling monster ratings after this is a done deal
I expect them to be in the Top 3 if not #1 for a while

Re: April 2023 Ratings

with AM no longer being offered in cars it's only a matter of time before WWJ/WJR move to FM
seems like they would both do better than WDRQ/WDZH

Re: FM Transmitter Range

I do agree, no one cares anymore. The FM band is so congested with useless translators, that should’ve never been approved. A pirate in an area like Detroit could get away with broadcasting, the only problem is your signal would be trashed 3 city blocks away. If you’re going to spend a grand or two...

FM Transmitter Range

How "legal" are they?? I have a cottage in a small town where nobody really cares about what people are doing it would be nice to transmit on my 5 acre property. if it goes farther than that should I really be worried? I've been looking at something like this https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BKKMTPBF/?co...

Re: 1991 Z-rock Airchecks?

Methinks the Z Rock at 102.7 was merely licensed. We had local talent here. The first couple years, it was all programming off the bird. they then went to local DJs and programming most of the day. at night it was back to the feed it was interesting in the last year, the base programming switched t...

Re: Todays Music, Todays Wheelz

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

From the article
This central set piece includes a curved side that blends well with both the current graphics package used across the CBS-owned stations and elements from the “deconstructed eye” framework that’s expected to be more widely rolled out across the group’s stations in the fall of 2022.
