No shock there.
R&R is late in posting the full 12+ topline AQH for all the stations in the Buffalo market (Rochester's numbers did come out on time). So a few unanswered questions;
1)What happened to 97 Rock this time around---did the Bills help, or did the team's second half meltdown hurt the last few weeks of their book?
2)How much of a boost has WGR gotten from the Sabres' strong season?
3)Did Jack get a temporary spike from Howard's farewell season?
4)How much did Christmas music help or hurt JYE and Star? (It helped Fickle a little in Rochester and market-leading WLTW a lot in New York)
5)Is WHTT still gaining?
6)Is 'KB starting to make some moves---and will it make more in the winter book now that WECK has basically thrown in the towel when it comes to seeking 45+ listeners?

In addition to all that, the winter and spring books will start to show whether a good local host helps WBEN out of its post-6 PM doldrums and makes it a contender for market leadership again. But we won't have that answer for another 3-6 months at least.
 
Re: Will someone fix the board clock?

I just noticed we're still running hours ahead on the timestamp for each post. I'm posting this at 9:15 AM...I bet it shows a 1 PM or later posting when it's entered. Will someone fix that? I once got reamed out by my boss for posting while on the air, when I'd actually posted it hours before while wolfing down breakfast...
 
Re: Will someone fix the board clock?

Bob, you post shows up on my system as 9:16 AM. Is it different on yours? If so, you may need to adjust your profile (or your bosses) to make sure the time zone is correct. Just click on the "My Account" link and go to "Preferences" to adjust the time offset to -5.

OK I got it...apparently it was set for GMT which is 5 hours ahead. Changed it to Eastern time. Never noticed that setting option before. Thanks for the tip.

My pleasure. Now you can change the offset on your computer at work to -7 or -8 and post away...

I've had the same problem Bob. In an attempt to correct this problem numerous times i've gone into my account and did what I am suppose to in order to have the clock read EST; which is does when I am logged in. After I log out it appears that I posted my message hours later. I have no idea why this happens. Perhaps this board's owners needs to invest in a new system, or just scrap the clock altogether.

Actually, No...

Mark, it's very simple. The time reflects your preferences set when you log in. If you're not logged in, the time defaults to GMT.

This is actually an issue better discussed on the "Ask Radio-Info" board, where the administrator or moderators may actually see it and respond to it.
