CIMX 88.7 sounds like crap
Re: CIMX 88.7 sounds like crap
I totally agree that 95.9 is a much better station. Both in sound quality and music programming, Blackburn is consistent in programming their stations.

It's sounded like crap since November 20 of last year.
Oh... You're talking about the audio settings. Got it.

Have you heard any signal bleed onto other stations?MWmetalhead wrote: ↑Fri Oct 29, 2021 7:17 am I don't miss 89X that much.
The constant technical issues, overplaying of stiffs, lack of library, lack of listener events, and generally terrible DJ lineup made for a pretty crappy station.
Engineering quality control in that building has got to be next to non-existent.
Ask not what your country can do FOR you; ask what they are about to do TO YOU!!

Bell Media has always neglected their Windsor stations. Their television station is just as bad on the technical end. It’s like the Windsor market is the red-headed stepchild of company.

I swung by while scanning earlier. No doubt, maximum volume (38) still sounds like another station's 24 or 25. It's almost like everything isn't potted up all the way.
Not like it's anything worth turning up anyway.
Even 88.1 in Canton sounds much, much better. Way to go, Bell...Plymouth/Canton schools runs a station better than you!

Is there anyone left in that building on Oulette? The end of every fiscal quarter has brought new firings and "retirements" for years.May not be anyone left.

Re: CIMX 88.7 sounds like crap
Fair point. I don't miss 89x from 2013 forward. I couldn't tell you what they were playing. That Pop Evil shit? No, what I miss on both 89x and 93.9 were the gold cuts. Thank God WRIF has started playing more stuff that 89x played that they wouldn't touch for years. Perhaps some more gold from the 00s beyond Linkin Park would be cool, too. I still dug 89x up until Dave and Chuck left. After that? Pfffffffff.MWmetalhead wrote: ↑Fri Oct 29, 2021 7:17 am I don't miss 89X that much.

Re: CIMX 88.7 sounds like crap
My curiosity gets the better of me.
Are there other border stations near larger markets (hell, even smaller markets) that 100% do not give a single flying fuck about the American side as much CIMX and CIDR don't? Especially like they used to?

Re: CIMX 88.7 sounds like crap
I was gonna ask about their signal because when I was in Toledo in March their signal was really choppy compared to before.
