Listened to it some yesterday. It's weak in Dallas. Should be better when they go to 50kw day. 39kw during critical hours.

Good strong signal across eastern Tarrant. Audio sounds clear and free of distortion. No announcers, just music... then at sign off they disappeared in the middle of a song!
In the words of Molly Ivins, 'There's no THERE there'.

Is there a playlist for this station?

 

[texasstooge]

What I'm wondering is this format permanent or are they stunting?

 

[grantchester]

Oh, yeah... They're stunting

1110's previous format of TV on radio was quite innovative I thought.

Maybe a male gay format would work in Dallas ... the Eleven Ten Men.

Why does this station go off the air at 8:45pm every night?

It's a daytimer.

No problem. I've heard that they just dissappear at sundown, no formal sign-off or anything.

 

[LibertyNT]

I've Never heard a sign-off announcement from 1110.
Isn't that against FCC regulations?

Probably not nowadays....Whatever happened to the good old sign-offs where they would annouce the call sign, city of license, frequency, wattage, thank the listeners for tuning in, invite them to tune back in at sunrise & play the national anthem.

Classic country no longer has the appeal in the Dallas-Ft. Worth market that it may have had 20 years ago. As already happened with Los Angeles, populations trends for the Metroplex show it becoming more ethnically diverse (Hispanic, Asian and Mideasteners).

Even though this is Texas, I think even mainstream country is becoming more a niche player. That format will never again have the big shares that KPLX and KSCS used to pull when the demographics of the market were quite different.

 

[oldmanradio]

Yes, I meant 1190.

But Eleven Ninety didn't rhyme with men

Anyway, brain freeze. And making a gay joke was thoughtless, and I apologize.

For some reason, I was thinking of the old KRLA 1110 in Pasadena/LA, the oldies and early top-40 station where Casey Kasem, Bob Eubanks, Jimmy O'Neill, Charlie O'Donnell, Wolfman Jack, Charlie Tuna, the Real Don Steele and many more worked.

KRLA theme ...

That maybe possible. Doesn't mean I would listen to it though.

I would also like to see 1110 switch formats to the new "Timeless Cool" satellite feed, and pit them up against "Legends 770 K-Double-AM".

If they are keeping the current country format, I would like to see them take the KIKM callsign and name the station "1110 Kick 'Em Country". The possibilities are endless.
