So I heard something interesting today. Listening to WCAR/1090 and definitely heard a sweeper with legal IDs for both WSDS and WCAR.

Did Birach sell 1090 to Vazquez Broadcasting?

As of this afternoon, 1090am appears to be simulcasting programming originating from 1480am. Modulation seems adequate.

[quote="armchair pd" post_id=694995 time=1647201904 user_id=348] 93-1 will be WJR-FM this year. Not an if, a when. Book it. [/quote] Very interesting comment. Would that include the possibility of spinning off 760 to another owner? And what the hell are they going to do with all that unused space on...

ICYMI: Veteran broadcaster Jim Bosh is now doing mornings with Madison.

Wishing Mr. Blaha a speedy and successful recovery.

Why not have Mario Impemba fill-in during Mr Blaha’s recovery?
He’d be great.

I think the original question is a bit too broad for a yes/no answer. In reality, anyone can support anything. A population can ‘support’ a business with an unsustainable business model for a long time. Much of the analysis previously posted, narrows down the scope of the question. I submit: given t...

Yes - WCXI 1160 and WPON 1460 share a site in Milford Twp., near Walled Lake. I saw, over the years, WPON move from Pontiac (bloomield twp?) at telgraph and Squae lake Rds, to Wolverine Lake, to Milford township !! Still dead as a door nail as of this afternoon. Sima. Just turn in the license. Take...

At least 2 Detroit AM stations go off the air permanently. Do you wish to clarify further as to which two specific stations you believe will shut down. Obviously you have two in mind. If you don't want to spell out the two stations at least explain the reason or reasons why you believe they will "g...

I don’t know why I’m doing this, but here it goes: At least 2 Detroit AM stations go off the air permanently. There will be an unexpected, major talent blood-letting, resulting in said Detroit radio company’s stations having absolutely no live, local on-air talent whatsoever. Detroit radio will cont...

Someone at GV has decided that “the great experiment” is over. The justification was well-thought out and well-written. I do not completely agree with some of the statements. However, I wonder if there was anyone to champion keeping the stations on the air? 1480 would have made a reasonable student-...

WJR will never switch to all news. Period. The goal would have to be to surpass/pummel/take-down WWJ. #2 ranking would not be good enough for WJR to get any agency buys. To succeed, it would take a $ignificant inve$tment in talent and marketing. None of which Cumulus is in position to accomplish suc...

Sinclair seems to be taking a backward-ass approach to all this. Did Sinclair terminate FSD carriage on YTTV, Hulu and other streaming services or was it the other way around? Streaming customers are peeved for good reason. The NHL/regional coverage/local team TV is a FAIL. Forcing a particular plat...

Stumbled across a new translator. Rebroadcast of WDEO/Ypsi
Looked it up: 99 watts at 282 feet above ground, on the WKBD tower.
Can’t tell when it went on the air, maybe in the last couple weeks?

Just throwing in my opinions for a loonie: AM 800 talk format goes to FM. No music royalties. Can turn off or sell AM 800. Staff already in place. AM 580 goes off the air permanently. I was going to predict the oldies format goes to the other remaining FM frequency; but after seeing Charlie O’Brien’...
