I saw this and thought there's no way they'll screw up that site, then I remembered what Cumulus let happen with the WLAV tower. I still don't think they've recovered from that mess a few years back. WGRD's sampling went way up outside of morning drive and they've been fairly dominant since.Ben Zonia wrote: ↑Fri Jul 26, 2024 7:24 pmConsider that WKLQ 94.5 has been short spaced for 60 years or more, to WKTI 94.5 Milwaukee, and WCEN 94.5 Mt. Pleasant/Hemlock. Under the newer 73.213 rules, they should hold on to their tower site for dear life...WKLQ fell into the old Section 73.213 short spacing zones from 1964 to the early 1980s, for just 10 kW/500 feet, even after moving to a tower further East.

In life when I have decisions to make I always think to myself, What Would Scott Hall Do?
Then I buy a bunch of cheap booze and drink myself to sleep.

Between Fairplain Ave. and the WAUS site, the Herald-Palladium built a 500-foot tower on newspaper property, at the SW corner of the I-94 Niles Ave. interchange. It was reportedly a preemptive move to prevent 99.9 in the south Chicago burbs from moving any further east or north.
It was still there during Wincor Commimications ownership.
Didn’t Schurz make the move to Berrien Sorings, when they purchased 99.9 to use as a South.Bend station? I remember country on 99..9 to take away part of B100’s #1 audience. benefiting Sunny 101.5,

Playlist leans classic alt, it appears. Good mix played in the inaugural hour.
I wonder if sister station 106.1 in Benton Harbor / St. Joe will head in a new direction? Doesn't make much sense to keep alternative on that signal.
Is this the first ever commercial Alternative station in the South Bend market? (I believe the COL for WQLQ is Benton Harbor, but TX site is near Berrien Springs.)
WQLQ can be heard in most areas along & south of a Saugatuck to Kalamazoo line.
