Re: Worst-sounding radio stations of all-time.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WBSQ-LP Worst I've ever heard from a legal operation. Also just as bad as the worst illegal operations I've heard. I was in Alma in 2004 and caught this station playing an awful selection of music with no processing at all. It was overmodulating so badly that it was co...

Re: Let the great subchannel realignment begin
In Tampa, WMOR is ATSC 3.0, with its 1.0 feeds simulcast on other stations:
WMOR's main channel (32.1) is on WFTS RF 17.5
MeTV (32.2) is on WTSP RF 10.6
Estrella TV (32.3) is on WTVT RF 12.6

Re: 106.9fm Runs out of energy in Milwaukee
https://radioinsight.com/headlines/206635/domain-insight-3-30-energy-to-be-turned-off-in-milwaukee/ I was waiting for this. They never had any "energy" in the first place. They were too scared to go to dance (CHR/D or EDM), which is what the "energy" brand meant. I guarantee they never ever played ...

Re: Awful ALT 98.7 down to a 1.6 share
It could be worse: Alt in San Francisco (which is on a slightly grandfathered Class B signal) is losing to two AMs with no FM presence, three San Jose-based Class B FMs that don't put a 60dBu over the northern half of the metro area, and is tied with a San Jose-based Class A FM that is short-spaced ...

Re: 106.7 on the air?
Looking at a recent FCC filing,it looks like Sovereign Communications is in the process of aquiring 106.7's former sister station 92.5.If so,it would seem they would likely use it for a repeater of one of their Sault Saint Marie stations. Sovereign did sell off their Central UP holdings recently. H...

Re: Classic rock on 95.1
It appears that Black Diamond has applied to upgrade W236BU to 250 watts from its current 10 watts. Does WGFN struggle that much in TC proper that a translator is needed? Or (wild thought) could WGFN be adding HD Radio, with 95.1 rebroadcasting a potential HD2 subchannel? IMO, if WGFN were to add HD...

Re: Blue Jay Fans Outraged That SportsNet is dropping Radio Broadcast in favor of Simulcast of TV Broadcast
I wonder if this is just a one-year budget cut and a separate radio crew returns in 2022, assuming US/Canada relations normalize and most if not all COVID restrictions are gone

Re: WBMI 1055 Back on the Air
In the mid 90's, there was no current based rock station, no CHR/Pop station with a signal worth a damn (WKHQ and WKPK could be heard in parts of town with a very good receiver), and barely a Hot AC station (102.3 from Big Rapids) available in Cadillac. Other than a Modern AC station disguised as a...

Re: Let the great subchannel realignment begin
I'm in the Tampa area on vacation this month, and here are the duplicated subchannels there: Court TV (WFLA 8.2, WFTS 28.4, and WXPX 66.2) Court TV Mystery (WFLA 8.3 and WVEA 50.4) - could this be coming to WXPX 66.5 based on the above post and WFTS adding QVC?

Re: Changes probably coming soon at WPXD (ION).
Do we really need yet another outpost for HSN or QVC programing?!?! Good lord; the DTV dial is already cluttered with multiple duplications of those channels. I'm in Lakeland, FL for the month, and Tampa Bay has quite a bit of duplication of subchannels: Court TV is on WFLA 8.2, WFTS 28.4, and WXPX...

Re: The end of a pandemic: what if this guy is correct?
I think the actual number of people infected is much higher than the official infection count as many people that may have been infected in the early stages of the pandemic (March/April/May) were never tested as they never developed symptoms or had mild symptoms not severe enough for a hospital visi...
