Any chance iheart radio Austin could be on a full powered stick?

I'm starting to like Iheart radio Austin now. Is there any chance they could ever be on a full powered station?

Huh?? Is this an internet only format?? I doubt iHM will be changing any Austin stations anytime soon

K276EL 103.1 "Iheart radio" They stream online but I listen to it in my truck sometimes. They play good music.

Then it already is on a high power signal....its on a HD-2 and the xlator is putting it on analog....a HD radio will get it with full coverage....

Coming from someone who despises iHeartMedia (or what I call iHateMedia, iFartMedia, iHeartMediocre, the list could go on), 103.1 surprisingly sounds what a radio station should sound like. Of if anything, what an alternative format should sound like these days. This station is a whole lot better to listen to in terms of great variety of music that I wish this type of format would go in other markets. In Dallas, I can't stand 102.1 the Edge's limited playlist of 90% overplayed 90's alternative and the 10% is stuff you can hear on top 40 radio (i.e Lorde, Gotye, and Avicii and barely any indie stuff!)

Not a big fan of HD radio. I had 3 but don't have them hooked up any more. I also had one in my truck but had so many drop outs it wasn't even listenable. I liked the idea of HD radio if only they would of put it in a new band and made it stronger.

Not a chance. It's doing poorly and showing no real growth. You're more likely to see 96.3 RnB on a full-power stick, and there's not a chance of that either!
