95.7 The Beat Tampa Makes Musical Shift; Adds The Breakfast Club

I'm just finding out about this. I haven't listened to Steve Harvey as much as I use to. I'l be 40 this year, I feel like his show was for those my age range and up. While The Breakfast Club is for my age and lower. But I could be wrong.

Apparently, they can. A couple of stations in Dayton, Ohio have been in the Aloha Trust going on 20 years and they've made several format changes, even though iHeart isn't "supposed" to be running them.

The trust has its own management in the form of a trustee who administers the stations. While in the trust, they are supposed to be a viable business as far as possible. They can do anything from changing managers, replacing transmitters and doing promotions to changing formats.

In the real world, I don't see how the Aloha trust stations in Dayton aren't being run by iHeart.

As noted in another thread, the 2 Dayton stations that have seemingly been in the Aloha Trust forever are being dinated to Delmarva Educational Foundation.
 
Noticed that WBTP showed up in the Orlando market 12+ for the past April report, too.

Maybe it has shown before, but, just happened to notice that after reading this news on them making adjustments.

I wonder what was on WBTP that folks listening in the Orlando DMA weren't hearing locally? (TBC show already airs on their translator-104.5 the Beat station.. along with some of the same air talent in the rest of the dayparts)
