Re: WWMT-TV, CW7 go live with new transmitter, improved broadcast signal

I wonder how it is in Kalamazoo now. We recently moved from Texas Township and I could pull in WSBT from South Bend, but could never get a reliable signal from the CBS station in my own market. I haven’t had a chance to put my antenna up in our new house to see.

Re: 40 years ago in 1979

Awesome thread! So cool to read this stuff. I wasn’t born yet for most of this stuff but remember in the late 80’s/early 90’s of WIOG with the Party Lizard bumper stickers all over and getting pulled over to win cash. Man, I remember those stickers being stuck to so many street signs in Mid-Michigan...

Re: WGKI/WGKU footage found at last!

I remember moving to the Evart/Reed City area in the early 90s and barely got the Cadillac signal with a rooftop antenna. It’s wasn’t even viewable. We must of been contending with some bad terrain issues with that signal. Not having Fox Kids in the afternoon while you were in elementary school in t...

Re: WVFM got JACKED up!

Yep, I agree. I heard Jet - Are you going to be my girl this afternoon. I like the mix, it’s refreshing. I like how they are pushing the local feel for the afternoon too. KFR is no longer local in the afternoon. I wish 96.5 would have done this 15 years ago before streaming.

Re: WVFM got JACKED up!

Wow, would not have guessed Jack FM moves to 106.5. WVFM has always had an identity crisis. I recently heard “Savage Love” translation into Bryan Adam’s’ “Everything I do”. So now that I mention that, maybe they were closer to Jack FM than I thought :wink: As for 96.5, I have lived in Kalamazoo for ...

Re: 1660 Kalamazoo "The Fan" flips to Urban Format

This is a bummer! Do we really need to give up Sports in Kalamazoo to have three signals broadcasting the same thing?

I was thinking he did a stint at Thunder 94.5 in the early days too.

WOTV - Virtual Channel 4?

I’ve always wondered why WOTV has never gone to virtual channel 4 in the digital tv age? Why stick with 41 when all branding refers to “4” for so many years?

Any good skips caught today?

With all of the crazy weather today, did anyone catch any super distant radio stations? I was driving up Drake Road in Kalamazoo by Costco and grabbed 98.9 Magic FM (KKMG) out of Colorado Springs/Pueblo. They were doing a live radio remote from K-Mart in Pueblo. By far my farthest grab and I was jus...

Re: Theory regarding Cumulus' next format move

94.5 has a RDS message currently set as “The Yibe - Jazz, Rhythm, and Blues”. Still Country through the speakers.
