105.3 The Martini

[MajorArmstrong]

An out-of-town question: Is this station still on the air? The Facebook page has people posting as late as January 31st but I can't find a website.

Yes. It's still on and playing the old, old hits..

Yes. It's still on and playing the old, old hits..

How long can this madness possibly last?

 

[OKCRadioGuy]

I'm guessing as long as it sort of breaks even and stays in the trust it will remain that way...

I realize it is in a "trust" blah blah blah, but I've thought that making 105.3 a soft AC, or smooth jazz leaning station would help KYIS in regards to KMGL.

Madness? I like The Martini! A city this size can handle a niche genre. I love Penthouse Radio online too. Very similar.

Much better than what passes for "music" on so-called "urban" stations.

I would think a real oldies format would have more mass appeal and generate more money than this really, really old format. Personally, I think it's just upper management's choice based on their own taste on a signal that doesn't affect the bottom line that much. If it "holds it's own" that's good enough for now.
