Right. Delilah aside... With Christmas music and the branding, all signs point to AC.Considering iHeart shows the positioner as "Christmas music and Delilah," that doesn't seem likely.
Why?! Ugh… did 1920’s big band hits not do well in 18-34 or something??I took a look at the station on the iHeart app and it says it’s 90s to Now or something like that. Sounds like it’s a Hot AC or AC. Not a terrible format but they could have put Hip Hop or Rhythmic to pull down 100.1 IMO.

CHR would have been a good format considering there’s no real CHR in Monroe except for Q93, which isn’t even a Monroe station. But as mentioned in my previous post, Urban is where the money’s at in Monroe considering 100.1 has been #1 for a long time. I believe Hip Hop, Rhythmic, or CHR would have been the best options.They should have done CHR Pop
There’s three universities in the market. Very, very rhythmic. You won’t find a lot of Jonas Brothers played anywhere in Monroe-Ruston-GramblingCHR would have been a good format considering there’s no real CHR in Monroe except for Q93, which isn’t even a Monroe station.

CHR really hasn’t clicked in that market for well over 15 years. Even the heritage CHR, KNOE-FM, flipped to R&B around 2013 after struggling for a stretch. KNNW spent most of its time in the format sitting in the low 1s. Listeners who want CHR can get it easily through streaming, SiriusXM, or KQID. I could see Rhythmic being potentially viable but I almost wonder if there was a clause in the sale that prevented it from directly competing with any of the Holladay Broadcasting stations.CHR would have been a good format considering there’s no real CHR in Monroe except for Q93, which isn’t even a Monroe station.
