All Local Talk - All Night Long

[Skynet74]

Would it work in Providence or do you think there would be a lack of phone calls? WBZ Boston does it and they get plenty of calls. Of course they have a 50,000 Watt signal to back them up. But how do you think this idea would work in Providence? Failure or Success?

After working a number of graveyard shifts in my career...the calls would be limited and would be the same 5 people calling, from my experience. There are plenty of people listening; but a lot of them can't call (working 3rd shift, you only hear from them on their breaks/lunch hour)

In Providence.No.
At Night time WPRO's and WHJJ signals are are horrible.You cant get them past Warwick.
Afeter you lose the Province stations.I'm sure Conneticut and New York start blaring in.
If an FM talker would be born on 99.7 or 93.3 being owned by another company) like in my dreams than maybe.

Not worth it from the point of view of paying someone. Worth it from the point of view of doing it to say you do it. The audience will be all hookers, taxi drivers, cops, & fireman & the hookers are probably too tired to call by midnight.
