Re: 97.1 Morning Show

Heather Park is on maternity leave. She had a healthy baby girl around the Christmas holidays. I listen most mornings from 6:00-7:30 am on my drive to work. I think Stoney, Jansen, and the rest of the morning crew mix up sports with Infotainment well. Example: On Thursday, Jon spoke of buying an air...

Re: Classic Country

In addition, WSDS 1480-AM was a Classic Country station until 2005. See this story: http://carcitycountry.com/2012/wysi-wsd ... -part-one/

WSDS changed formats in roughly 2005 to become "La Explosiva," and is now a Spanish-language station

Re: 97.1 Mornings...

I bounce around the radio dial on my way to work in the morning. I do listen to 97.1FM. Heather Park's news usually runs at 22 minutes past the hour for roughly 10 minutes. It may go a little longer, depending on the dialogue around the stories. They've reduced the time, in fact, from when the bit f...
