107.7 is also a rimshot. Its tower is 35 miles southeast of Buffalo. Country should do better than Alternative on this signal. The Edge broadcasts from the heart of Buffalo

Reality show-driven diginets on a supposed Christian broadcasting station; now that's funny! The fact one of the networks is called "Defy" is rich irony. :) It will be interesting to see if sister station WTLJ in Muskegon / Grand Rapids begins adding more in the way of secular diginets. So far, the...

I'm surprised 96.1 hasn't dumped Sports for Urban AC, especially since it's 24/7 national feed now. I don't even think it airs much of anything in the PBP department outside of Saturdays in the fall (it seems like most of iHeart's sports properties air on 1300/106.9)

I'm surprised iHeart hasn't dumped 96.1 or 101.3's format to temporarily rebroadcast WOOD 1300 (or bumped one of the HD2's they have in the market)

Will re-districting alone flip 4 House seats? I think Republicans hold on to both chambers of the Michigan Legislature. For the gubernatorial race, Whitmer will face at least one primary challenger, which will use up some $$$ she could use in the general election cycle. The general election will be...

WLLA be like "How many subchannels can we have?"
"Fuck it, let's find out!"

WACX in Orlando, FL has 11 (!!) subchannels. Amazingly, I was still able to get a decent signal from them near Universal Orlando (from a sixth floor room facing Bithlo) on my Milanix portable TV. WACX is on RF 7 to boot

Some other examples:
102.3 W272CR Petoskey (also WMKT) - 250 watts, HAAT 281 meters
100.7 W264DQ Cadillac (WLJW (AM) - 250 watts, HAAT 188 meters

Found an even better one in Wisconsin:
101.3 W267BB Wausau (WHRM-HD3) - 250 watts, HAAT 329 meters

The bid list has come out, and here are the bidders: MM-FM1083-A - 99.9 Custer Hit Radio Media (WMOM owners) Michael Radio Company Suzanne Henderson (Roy's wife or daughter or daughter-in-law?) Venite Adoremus MM-FM1205-A - 99.9 Carney Adam Bernier Michael Radio Company Suzanne Henderson (Roy's wife...

There's some more:
The Harrietta tower built by WPBN in the early 1960s is home to 88.7 WIAA, 91.1 WOLW, and 91.9 WGCP
A tower near Benton Harbor is home to 89.9 WCXB, 94.9 WSJM, and 107.1 WIRX

Covid. The great equaliser. No lineups at the bank. No one is allowed in. Doesn't matter if you're wearing clothing with the labels on the outside, sandals with no socks or the correct brand of sunglasses on top of your head. Doesn't matter if you have a smart phone glued to one hand and a cup of S...

I watched AntennaMan's video on Pittsburgh NextGen and he was able to decode WPNT's ATSC 3.0 signal in Cresson, which is about halfway between Altoona and Johnstown

Some historical (1960s) FM operations in northern Michigan: 88.3 WIAA (1962) - 115kW / 350 ft (Interlochen Music Camp) [originally applied for 103.5, then 89.7 before landing on 88.3] 92.1 WCCW (1967) - 0.84kW / 520 ft (Barney Rd, 2 miles west of Traverse City) 92.9 WWTV (1962) - 100kW / 895 ft (5.7...

It looks like Randy Michaels gave up on the Lake Isabella allotment. It had the call letters WRAX. The plug was pulled before it was licensed, from what it looks like. Does anyone know more about this? From what it looks like, it was so close to being short spaced, and the fully spaced area was so ...
