I make it to Minot at least once a year. The other group of stations are way behind the 8-ball in that market. They don't even have a Facebook page let alone an actual site or stream. Not sure how they're actually selling against Clear Channel. Sure, CC may be using Premium Choice to fill most of the slots but you still get a good sense of community listening to their cluster. If I was a local indie going against a powerhouse like CC, I'd be damn sure I had a Facebook page at the very least!!!
The last time I heard `WGO, it sounded fairly close to MIX 99.9. A very broad HOT AC. As a radio nerd, I enjoy listening to WGO the most as I can hear Premium Choice jocks Sisanie & Billy The Kidd anywhere. WGO is a very `local' sounding station.
For the rockers, The Zoo's playlist was much older compared to CC's The Fox.
