I don't give money to anyone I don't know. Not somebody panhandling, not the Salvation Army, not the Girl Scouts, not Hurricane relief, none of that stuff. I know enough people personally that need money. Soup kitchens I work at, the church I attend. Someone I know that needs a few pennies. Having ...

The best thing for 101.9, IMHO, would be for IPR to buy it and move IPR News to 101.9, spinning off 91.5 to a religious broadcaster (i.e. The Promise FM, which just bought 100.9 East Jordan from IPR) Y'know, that's really not a bad idea at all. With 101.9 now putting a listenable signal into the Ma...

Some of us in the Native American community are more than a little displeased with how this was covered, as well: Imagine the initial shock of seeing one of our Elders seemingly taking abuse from a group of bigot teens, only to learn later that there's a lot more to the story than was initially "rep...

Dang, I used to get a $50 Savings Bond every so often as a Nielsen household...

Archaic? Yes, pretty much the literal definition of archaic. No offence but do you believe that your behavior is typical? Everyone pretty much has a phone but in a Nation of 320 Million, there are only 3 Million hams I know exactly one person who uses a weather radio. My child, a 24 year old magna ...

Hasn't all of this archaic stuff been replaced in most localities by a push notification system such as "CivicReady" that Obamadollars paid for? Archaic? Hardly. Drive through the Rockies out West and NOAA Weather radio works practically everywhere, while cellular coverage is still spotty and unrel...

I firmly believe that the NYC exclusivity is a holdover from the early days of TV when the big four television networks originated their programming from there. It's their way of jabbing Hollywood and reminding the rest of us that they were once the nation's entertainment capital for radio and TV. k...

Was driving back from ludington yesterday and saw a billboard for 101.9 wldr on US31 between ludington and Manistee. Still can’t get it in very well in northern mason county. I saw the billboard too, facing northbound US-31 traffic a couple of miles south of the Manistee/Mason county line. Just tri...

Thanks for uploading! Although I'm surprised it was only a half-hour long. Considering all the generic CBS footage at the beginning of the program--along with all the Christmas music at the end--it seems they had to stretch what they had to work with to fill the 22 1/2 minute runtime (sans commerci...

Thanks for posting part 1! I enjoyed watching it. The YouTube channel is hosted by fellow forum member FMDXGuy5678...I can't begin to express my great appreciation for his efforts in the archiving and sharing of long-unseen Michigan television broadcasts. I expect that he'll have part 2 up very soo...

I pulled the 9&10(&13) 50th Anniversary tape and it's in process right now. Should be up in a day or two.

It's on my to-do list. With winter on the way, I'll have a bit more time to digitize source material. When it goes up, it should be on this YouTube channel:

I've been monitoring the new 101.5 overnights over the past couple of days and have to say I think they're really on to something. My audiophile ears give two thumbs up to the processing they're using, and the playlist is an engaging mix of mostly '80s hits with some older and more modern material t...

I thought WMTE did well with the format used under thr Coast moniker. At least thats when i enjoyed it most. Stopped listening shortly after it was switched back to complete satellite-fed. But as i said, i do enjoy the format now. A very nice and broad mix I fully agree. Coast FM did make something...
