Did WWTV and/or WGTU pre-empt network shows in 1988 (or did WBAY and WZZM air syndicated shows that went uncleared in Traverse City)?

Started as AC "Mix 102.5" then flipped to Hot AC somewhere along the way. I remember listening to the 2001 American Top 20 (Hot AC) year-end countdown on 102.5 when I lived in Saline that year. Kinda surprised Smile FM didn't snap this up first. IIRC they don't have a signal in that area. I think S...

I think I saw that WGTU aired Sesame Street for a couple of years, but WGTU didn't make it to the UP until after WCML came on.

Has Star (265kW) ever been this far behind Joy 99, which is a Class A rimshot from Holland?

I just downloaded it and it looks really cool!

Also the Olive Garden ad long before the TC location opened. The closest location at the time was likely Grand Rapids or Saginaw depending on where in the market you were located

I had no idea Witmark had a location in TC.

Also, at this time Meijer had only one location in 7&4's coverage area (the one on South Division). They now have at least nine locations in 7&4's coverage area.

750 WOUF - have they been on the air at all in the past few years? Also no translator
1220 WBCH - had a CP for a translator, let it expire without extension

For the Republicans, I think Ron DeSantis should be at the top of the ticket. He won Florida by nearly 20 points this week (including winning Miami-Dade County) and doesn't turn off as many people as Trump. Some possible VP candidates include Rand Paul, Nikki Haley, Larry Hogan (managing to win elec...

I think redistricting hurt O'Malley a lot. He lost most of his strong areas to the new 102nd (VanderWall, who was gerrymandered out of the State Senate and dropped back down to the House) and 104th (Roth) districts while adding most of Traverse City proper (which has always had a progressive lean co...

Very small population???

Have you seen TCM-FM and KLT's ratings lately???

Seems to me they outperform nearly every other station in the market. What does that say about everyone else?

And that is even with some of WTCM-FM's strongest counties being removed from the market!

If this station is CBS, what did WLUC convert to?

WLUC wasn't the one to change as they are FOX and NBC. WJMN 3 changed over to MyNetwork and Antenna TV.

WLUC was CBS for many years, but lost it to WJMN in 1992.

I was in Louisville at the end of September and a couple of the iHeart FM's there still had HD2's on as of then (95.7 WQMF, 97.5 WAMZ, 100.5 WSDF; WSDF has K-Love and Air1 on HD2 and HD3 respectively). Also, WOOD and WMAX still have HD2 feeds (however, both simulcast talk AMs with no analog FM pres...

Was up north recently and wanted to pay kudos to the engineering team at WTCM. The audio processing is probably one of the better sounding country stations we have anywhere in this state. Not super loud, just rich sounding across the spectrum. Hats off to whomever you are! It might have been more d...
