94.7 Updates

One thing stands out: After all the days of speculation, the thousand of posts and the 100+ pages, there are still a lot of us who feel passionate about RADIO as an art form, science and vocation. From the ridiculous to the sublime, humorous to the sarcastic, informative to speculative, this thread has been viewed and read by thousands of radio geeks 'n freaks, pros and poseurs; wannabees, wouldbees and usedtobees who, for the most part, still believe and still have faith. To me, that's a helluva tribute. Encouraging, wouldn't you say.

Well said.There is still something left to be said about the passion radio can evoke.
 
It sounds like they are just reiterating that they have gone country. Perhaps this will be an every hour thing to build awareness. I was thinking we might hear a deejay after the flip playback.
 
Hey Country can STILL b a stunt. I'm not 100% convinced. Why WRXP? Not sure if that was to just throw us off. Website and FB just seem so "thrown" together. From what I hear there was so much more effort with the stunt and little with the station. The List live link still has WRXP_FM in the header
 
It appears to be "the real deal, Lucille." Man, if my in-home stream was PPM'd, 94.7 Nash-FM would have racked up huge TSL, albeit a few hundred miles from the Metro. This could be the most this AOR-Classic Hits-Classic Rock and Oldies jock/prod guy has listened to Country at one sitting in more than a month. It's that good.

RXP call letters were available and familiar, while not giving away the NASH plans.

See how long it takes for NASH related calls to be substituted and RXP calls moved elsewhere.

Call letters are easy to change. WRXP was just to raise hopes and get us geeks talking, it really means nothing. Cumulus has plans for the Nash brand..

Update 1/20:A Cumulus holding company has applied for multiple “Nash” trademarks.

Applied for by the “Consolidated IP Company LLC” on November 14 were trademarks for: Nash, Nash Channel, Nash On-Line, The Nash Experience, Nash Awards, Nash FM, and Nash TV. They were accompanied on January 3 by Nash Notes, Nash Country, Nash Magazine, Nash Entertainment, and Nash Interactive. With the exception of the final one all were applied for the purpose of “Radio broadcasting services; conducting award ceremonies; printed publications, namely, entertainment magazines; providing online publications in the nature of entertainment magazines; providing a website featuring online radio broadcasting and entertainment news, events and information”.

Why go through all of that work just to flip to dead-end alternative?

Country is here on 94.7. The WRXP calls were just a smokescreen and are now just a placeholder.

The WNSH calls were parked by Cumulus in Minnesota a few months ago.

if you do not edit out the full songs, you tube will probably inform you what copyrights your breaking as soon as it is uploaded.
