Re: Leslie West (Mountain) dies

Fun fact: Mountain was the name of Leslie West's debut solo album in 1969. Future Mountain guitarist and co-lead singer Felix Pappalardi (who was murdered in 1983) performed on that album

Fun fact 2: Noel Redding (from the Jimi Hendrix Experience) had a very short stint in Mountain in the mid-1990s

Re: Michigan cancels OSU game

After playing 102 times since 1918, Jim Harbaugh ERA is over at Michigan rumors are that 5 NFL teams are interested in Jim Harbaugh's services. OSU fans are heartbroken they can't play in the Big 10 Championship Game unless the Big 10 changes the rules when they had to play 6 games. I wouldn't be s...

Re: Blarney Stone Petitions FCC to cancel WLDR license

WPBN-TV 7 used to be a wall to wall signal in Mecosta County. WWTV 9 was somewhat stronger, and WZZM 13 a close third. WKZO/WWMT 3, WNEM 5, WJIM/WLNS 6 WOOD 8, and WJRT 12 were all receivable at higher elevations, and later WGTU 29 and WGVC/WGVU 35 were receivable. Even WJBK 2 and WWJ/WDIV 4 were r...

Good. Keep the pause through new year's day.
I think many restaurants had been planning on being take-out/deilvery only through the holidays since the order came out in mid-November.

Re: Blarney Stone Petitions FCC to cancel WLDR license

The WTOM TX is definitely located in a stupid place. Not only is OTA coverage abysmal due to terrain issues, but many of the areas that WTOM *does* reach can pick up WGTQ anyway! Can someone also please explain why WPBN and WGTU both use the same tower just east of Kalkaska? Both channels include b...

Re: Blarney Stone Petitions FCC to cancel WLDR license

Why is this owner trying to start LP-DTV operations in a region where few people are using antennas (because of complex terrain), when he can't seem to keep his potentially more lucrative high-power FM properties on the air. Maybe he should sell N479RH and go Greyhound? Unless he plans on selling t...

The ID now says "This is WSRT Gaylord and WFDX Atlanta" and sure enough, 92.5 is playing the same lo-fi music as 106.7.
I heard 92.5 earlier this week in Manistee

Impressive share for WISN

In the most recent ratings for Milwaukee, 1130 WISN managed to score a 12.7 share. That is the highest share of any station in any PPM market! Impressive for an AM with no FM translator: https://radioinsight.com/ratings/milwaukee/

Re: 95.3 in Grand Rapids has apparently switched to Real Oldies

I heard Real Oldies on 95.3 during my most recent Grand Rapids visit in mid-November.

IMHO, Real Oldies should've been on 95.3 GR from the day the translator came under the control of GVSU (but fed from 1480 AM)

Re: Mike Shirkey is right!!!

The 8th district also includes most if not all of Lansing and East Lansing, which are dark blue. With Michigan likely to lose a congressional seat in the next round of reapportionment, it'll be interesting to see how the districts are realigned.
