Re: No Packers on FOX UP....

I just don't remember a time that you couldn't watch the Packers around here due to there not being a viewable station around here to do so, and I've been following them to some degree since 1986. I just hope it doesn't become a situation now where FOX UP is going to pick and choose which team they ...

No Packers on FOX UP....

FOX UP is choosing to broadcast the Lions' game over the Packers' game for the first time that I can remember. Now I know the Lions deserve praise this year and will win the division for the first time since Jesus was a child, HOWEVER, FOX UP is supposed to be a Packers' station as they broadcast va...

Re: GLI Tourney on Fox UP

Who said anything about the world’s worst broadcaster in this post? Not me. You seemed obsessed, Matt, with me and Sinclair. You need to get a hobby or something, buddy. And you know this already, but I’ll remind you for the 197th time because of the short term memory issues you seem to have… I lef...

Re: Paper Mill Fungal Outbreak

Appears they are still looking. Cases were @ 109 as of Monday 5/1. The explanation of the cycle of the fungus in the above article is kinda "The Last Of Us" scary... albeit on a much smaller, and slower-moving scale. As a massive fan of that game series that was literally the first thing to come to...

Re: Rockin' Eagle 98.7 adds Marquette area signal at 106.9 FM

That's really lame if they're using the same sat feed as 99.5!!! I didn't realize WGLI had dumped local programming. Usually those deals have market exclusivity....so this really suprises me that they'd be using the the same feed in the same market. Curious to know if this was lack of research or j...

Re: Rockin' Eagle 98.7 adds Marquette area signal at 106.9 FM

It's the EXACT same feed as what 99.5 is using. You might not hear the same music at the exact same second (sometimes you will), but the playlists are identical. They both must be tapping from the same satellite. I tried to send them a message right when I noticed that but got no response back. WAST...

Re: WLUC fires Weather Staffer

The last I heard, 19 was assigned to Calumet. Is the station located in the Houghton area? Your information is slightly out-of-date. 19 was originally assigned to Houghton in the 1952 Table of Allotments. 25 was later added as an ETV allotment. Marquette originally had 5 and 17. In or around 1965, ...

If this station is CBS, what did WLUC convert to?
WLUC wasn't the one to change as they are FOX and NBC. WJMN 3 changed over to MyNetwork and Antenna TV.

93.3 actually simulcasts 107.7 WMQT now from a Marquette tower.

Here you go guys!! I was freaking out a bit too as that's a football channel. I sure hope they can fit it in HD with all of their SD subchannels there.

Re: 1320 WDMJ Marquette VERY weak

They need to do something, especially since 1320 is the ONLY local affiliate broadcasting Red Wings games. It used to be on Magic 97 and 94.9 The Bay, which are both very strong locally. I'd like to know whose stupid wasteful idea that was.

Re: 1320 WDMJ Marquette VERY weak

I graduated Northern Michigan in 1990 so my memories of that station end at that point. Sorry about the Red Wings games. Here is an example of their playlist: Pete Townsend / Forever's No Time At All Joe Walsh / Meadows Pere Ubu / Waiting For Mary The National Lampoon Hour Todd Rundgren / For The W...

Re: 1320 WDMJ Marquette VERY weak

When I was in college I remember WDMJ's brief, (1988/1989) AOR period. No other programming I'll ever hear will ever be as cool. 30 years later I still miss it, (especially when I listen to WCSX.) My memories go back to riding the bus in the early 80s to school where they only had AM radios. We use...
