Re: Amherstburg's NEW Radio Station ~ Coming Spring 2023

I thought I saw on here somebody posted the translator's licensed contours and it didn't even cross the border, yet their signal comes in strong in most of Windsor and a pretty large part of Essex county. I could hear traces of it as far away as Leamington on my car radio. If they were broadcasting ...

Re: Amherstburg's NEW Radio Station ~ Coming Spring 2023

So, since the big storm Thursday night it appears the Mexican translator at 107.9 is off the air. I noticed driving home from work yesterday that I was able to pick up a pretty good signal on CKBG through parts of South Windsor and LaSalle where before the Mexican station totally dominated the frequ...

Re: New Amherstberg Radio Station Now Testing With July 3 Launch Date

Driving around Amherstburg the other day I can tell you the signal suffers a bit of co-channel interference from the Mexican translator when close to the Detroit river, which ironically is where the downtown is and the station's studio is. It's fine when not moving. In most of the neighbourhoods awa...

Re: 98.7 Alternative!

Well not sure it is the right move for the Detroit market but maybe they see an opportunity here. For all the crap that 89X and the River did receive on this board (some warranted some not) they did play a lot of music that was not being heard with any regularity on any US station. I haven't had a c...

Re: Lost Classic Rock Songs - Detroit version

This is the best thread ever! How can I listen to all these songs in one afternoon?!?! - all great choices and few I have heard on WLLZ's 420 deep cut of the day in the last week or so. A few more and I apologize if they were already mentioned: SUCH A WOMAN - TYCOON BACK ON THE ROAD AGAIN - REO SPEE...

Re: 98.7 Song Requests

Anita Baker is a good one. How could a Detroit based station playing softer music not include Anita Baker. How about: Free - Deniece Williams When I Die - Motherlode Funny thing about this station / format, so many songs they play I used to change the station when they came on back in the day, now, ...
