It is a $5 question I ask myself alot.
Well, since I don't live in CT anymore I guess I'll just wait and find out what happens (or doesn't happen) when whatever the news is goes public. WUCS is a horrible signal, especially to the south and east. I wonder if they're just breaking up with ESPN or changing format. If the latter, would any of the full-market FMs flip, or would sports be scattered among various stations, primarily WTIC(AM)?
It would be great for my wife if the Giants were on 1080, which we can get in Eastern Mass.!
I assume they have long term contracts on the signal either way.
I thought the Giants were on 1080.
Personally, it’s worth it to me. $5 is a drop in the bucket compared to other monthly expenses. (And I’m supporting an independently run business, which I advocate for.)
I thought the Pats were there this year.
IIRC, the last year I was in Connecticut (2021), both the Giants and Pats were on WTIC. If both teams were playing at the same time, then 1080 would take the Giants and the Pats would have no Hartford affiliate, but all the Pats games were on powerhouse WAQY Springfield, so that signal took care of most of the Hartford area,
WFAN has such a strong signal into CT that 1080 isn't really needed either.
With some paywalls you can go to 12ft – Hop any paywall, paste the link and remove them, not RadioInsight's though.
That’s a good thing
Still, they can’t pass up the potential local ad revenue to be had.
I wouldn't trust a site like that, anyway. As is the case with many foreign-based pirate streaming sites, it is likely to push malware into users' computers. The .io suffix on the URL is often a sign of an illegal operation registered on the other side of the world (in this case, on an island in the Indian Ocean) where it can flourish out of the reach of US authorities.
So we're now advocating outright content theft here now? Let's put it this way, if you use any of those sites to block paywalls you deserve any bad thing that happens to you. Let's put it this way... I keep RadioInsight's subscription affordable because I am a radiogeek, but I've been asked by actual executives in the industry why I don't charge hundreds for the services I provide in helping break moves from competitors. Posts like this make me strongly reconsider my position.
Nah, I’m good. I’d rather pay Lance $5/month for info than infect my computer/phone with viruses from a sketchy site because ‘I’m too cheap and selfish.’
