“FLO 107.1” is “Hot” Again...

This is stupid how many top 40 station are there already for the Denver market just waiting for this station to end.

you wont have to wait long.. no one emplyoed them nor any format seems to last terribly long
 
This signal even tried EDM in the past. What about Spanish CHR or Spanish Rhythmic for this or another frequency? I could be wrong but it seems these formats are not on the air there. The Denver market is 31% Hispanic.

I don't know what format it would be, but it would seem that something that doesn't scrape from the edges of others and has a loyal following could do better. IIRC the Denver terrestrial radio market is pretty well covered; hell this frequency even already tried EDM in the past. The signal isn't superb into Denver proper if I'm not mistaken ; not sure what they could do.

its 100kw at 2000 ft from like 50 miles away!

The Denver market is 21.1% Hispanic. That means that at most there are 8 to 9 shares for Spanish language stations. Given that the existing stations are not the greatest, signal-wise, that is why shares are even lower usually.

Spanish language CHR and Spanish language rhythmic are the same thing today, based on reggaetón and its derivatives.

96.5 la tricolor in Denver draws most of the hispanic market share I believe. Think it is pretty much the only one on fm band. There is some spanish am stations though but I doubt that many people even bother with them.

There are obviously some shares not being accumulated because there is no CHR / Reggaeton station. In many markets, that is the #2 Spanish language choice after regional Mexican.
 
It is astonishing that with a significant Hispanic population in the Denver area, there is no current-based station tailored directly for that audience. A format hole if there ever was one.
 
From a scan through all the stations, these are all in Spanish: 92.1, 96.1, 96.5, 97.7. Some are probably low power.

If you get time could you check out the Denver am band and see what is there spanish station wise. For all I know there could be a mexican chr or reggaton station people dont bother to tune in to.

One is Regional, the other Adult Hits (Jack in Spanish, sort of). No Spanish CHR.

In Spanish, CHR and Reggaeton are synonymous and have been for a decade or so.

For a significant portion of Spanish dominant listeners who come from mostly rural areas of Mexico, Regional Mexican is the format for both young and old. Spanish language CHR is more a middle class city dweller format, and fewer of that group migrate.

AM is pretty much dead in most of Latin America, so trying to do a youth format on AM is not going to work.
 
Yeah radio disney probably was the last one to try to do the youth format on am. Hopefully there will be more but doubtful.


LOL really? no, not happening
