About CR's Oldies 107.1

[LC]

For anyone who's listened to Cedar Rapids' new 107.1, I have some questions:

1. Is this a station with local DJs, or is it part of a 24-hour format (i.e. Oldies Radio or True Oldies Channel)?

2. Does this station air nationwide programs (like 'American Gold' or 'Goddard's Gold') OR have plans to air any such radio programs in the near future?

3. What is the earliest hit song ever played thus far? The most recent hit?

Your help is greatly appreciated....

I heard a promo for their morning show, so they have at least that shift as local. Other than that, I haven't heard any local DJs so it is safe to assume it is on autopilot.

Too early to tell.

I can't be specific but the playlist is generally from the mid 60's to late 70's.

More specifically, it's locally automated, not a satellite format. They do carry a syndicated show called the "Party in the Basement, Hall of Fame Coast to Coast."
