1530 Jacksonville on the air?

A

AM Top 40

Is WYMM Jacksonville still on the air? I usually get them in Palm Coast and did not hear them for the past week or so. Maybe they're on the old CCA backup 1kw xmtr. Anyone know??

I was in Jacksonville on business last Friday and was listening to Dave Ramsey. There signal is really bad in Jacksonville.
 
Until recently Ramsey was on one of the christian AMs in Pensacola also. I suppose he is considered safe programming that draws a broader audience?
 
WYMM is really weak up North in Fernandina and Yulee. Hard to believe they're trally putting out 50kw even if it does go out into the Atlantic.

In the last hour or so before sunset, Cincinnati on 1530 is typically all over them.
 
I worked there in the mid 90's and we got letters from as far west as Mississippi & Louisiana saying WCRJ was loud and clear. If it's running at 5kw now, I'd be shocked. You can't hear it in OP, St Johns county or the beaches.
Damn shame.
 
Dave Ramsey is a christian fellow who has many listeners, both Christian and non-christian. He almost lost everything, and rebounded. At one time, he was selling his programs from his car! Yes, several churches offer classes in his Financial Peace program.

Brother Bear what time period in mid 90s did u work for CRJ? I was there for about 9 months in 95 when they went all talk. Was a board op/production director during that time and also did some on air with the bargain channel type format.
 
THey're probably on the 1kw backup xmtr. They have a deep null pointing toward Cincinatti (N.N.W), so Somewhat, Yulee and Fernandina are generally on the backside of pattern for WYMM. Hard to keep the electricity paid for 50kw, and probably not pulling in enough coin to pay the bills... speculation of course.
