Is "San Diego's new Q... Q96" ever coming back?

I enjoy listening to mono audio and scratchy top 40 music that fades in and out no matter where I am.

Q96.... The anatomy of how to ruin a perfectly good radio station. This is a move-in that should have never taken place.
 
The Campo station is on the air. I can "receive" it going south on the 67 past Scripps Poway Parkway to the crest of the grade into Lakeside. The 700 watt translator/booster/relay/rebroadcaster from Mount San Miguel is OFF the air. The Campo station throws 25 KW right into a nice ... hill ... to the west.

As far as studios, they must exist somewhere. Cherry Creek has been very "silent" about the T1 break in October 2010. If it is a telco problem, this is unheard of. I suspect, but cannot confirm, the T1 was either from a non-telco or a reseller and there is an obvious disconnect not only in content; but communication from the station to the provider.
 
Q96 actually has studios in Jamul (for what reason I dont know except to maybe keep it in the 60dbu contour of the main signal). As I recall the T-1 line was some weird setup it wasnt a typical one. All they need to make the booster work is a pair of devices called the Comrex Brick link. They are like $5k (or cheaper),and all you need is a fixed IP address as the studio and a fixed IP address at the transmitter, you feed audio, and all of a sudden you're making radio!! It's cheap and easy!! There you go Cherry Creek you can be on the air today. SCMS has some in stock and so does BGS!

Maybe you should call them. Does Cherry Creek even know they have a problem?

Does Cherry Creek even know they have a station in San Diego?
Oh wait... They don't have a station in San Diego, do they?

Who the hell cares what they're doing? They're incompetent and running an illegal operation. Now that Zears is gone don't expect anything to change soon, and even if it did, it will never be a San Diego signal.
 
Now now like most of radio today it's more interesting as a spectator sport than it is to be involved in it! It would be a mess to work 96.1. By the way they have a good engineer I had the priveledge of working with him for over 2 years, I think it's an ownership problem! I would like to see them do something creative with the format as they will never compete with Channel 933!!

You cant beat that 50kw signal with a booster on Miguel! And you cant beat Jimmy Steele at 933's programming in comparison. Turn it into something interesting, 24 hour Lesbian mud wrestling!!! Ill tune in!!

So, address for their station in San Diego is... In Denver Co?
Hmm, maybe there's a San Diego in Colorado?
That must be it...

933 is the CHR of record, but in any given book, any station can beat any other station if the effort (and money) are there.
