[Ozman]

I was in MA & Northern CT the other day and Listened to nothing but Lazer 99.3 for 6 hours liked everything they played did not have to change the station. other than lazer 99.3 I find I cannot listen to radio anymore. there are two cents.

Jamie, I wholeheartedly agree that Lazer99.3 is an indescribable station.

Successful for years -

Interesting that the Active Rock format works there & in Boston for WAAF, but not for 'CCC anymore, & even for the sister station of 'LZX, Rock102! Can't understand why they can't update their playlist with some songs that 'LZX programs.

Just wish they were 50kw instead of 5800!

WAAF hasn't been active rock for years.

 

[amfmradio1]

Arbitron says so.

 

[reelyreal]

Actually, they don't. They list WAAF as a mainstream rock station.

They're heavy on gold and classic rock, with much fewer new tracks, and only from time-tested well worn bands that have mainstream appeal.

Actually, Arbitron doesn't say anything anymore because they don't exist. The remains of Arbitron are now Nielsen Audio.

AAF can throw a good song or two here and there but god forbid I have to hear another led zeppelin or AC/DC song for the billionth time. Lazer 99.3 sure they had a few annoying songs here and there but thats radio it's the mix they have of mostly new music that made it so I wanted to know what they were playing next unlike AAF where you could guess the next song.

Actually, they don't. They list WAAF as a mainstream rock station.

They also list WEDX as Rhythmic CHR when the station plays no "contemporary hits," at least under the standard definition of current songs with widespread popularity. Dance isn't a format yet?

That's AllAccess putting their own tag on the station. They routinely publish all sorts of errors. You claimed Nielsen Audio calls them active rock, so I showed you where Nielsen Audio does not, in fact, call them active rock.... on their very own website and in their own words.
