99.7 kiss fm in KC is more of a hot ac then top 40 station

I dont wanna be a negative nancy,, but KC already has Mix 93.3 for CHR, and 95.7 The Beat for CHR/Rhythmic,,,, they will canabalize each other.... For the others,,, im not into Satelite non local stations.. Especially 24/7,,, talk about doing it on the cheap side.

 

[CHRles]

Actually, it looks like the Hits 106 stations in the Jersey Shore are going with Dial Global's Hits Now. I LOVE this type of CHR as it truly plays all the hits, and there's also usually live jocks associated with it.
My understanding is that Hits 106 will be live and local in morning and afternoon drive within a few weeks, and I'm guessing Nudge@Night will be on evenings (as is usually the case with stations that carry Hits Now).

Is that the same Nudge that used to be with Star 94?

I remember monitoring WBBO for Mediabase back in 2004 when it was a CHR the first time.

Is that the same Nudge that used to be with Star 94?

Yup.

Nudge is very good and has helped our evenings alot,,, However,, we almost all lost our jobs when our GM was gonna go 24/7 Hits Now, so you can see where im coming from. Luckily he backed out at the 11th hour, but decided to keep Nudge, but with our own music scheduling...
