DEAD AIR ON THE ARROW

[iused2bsomebody]

I've noticed this a couple of times within the last week or so that right around midnight The Arrow goes totally silent for about two minutes or more. With the heated battle of the Eagle, I say this is no time to make mistakes like this. Just wondering if its equipment problems or jock error.

What jock? Certainly not one that is local. Probably some guy in New York, Nashville, or LA programming it remotely. He probably runs three or four stations at a time, and is busy with another while the Arrow goes dead until he can get to it.

Get used to it, with cost cuts this will get more and more common.

Nope. KKRW is mostly local. Sometimes if NexGen is underfilled, it won't hit the 12:00 ID until it waits until 12:00. Same issue has happened several times to The Buzz.

I thought maybe you were talking about the dead air mornings from 6 - 9 AM.

 

[rageradio]

No they've got a couple of guys in there from 6 to 9a.. 10 actually. Maybe you've heard of them, Walton and Johnson. Good stuff

this is easily fixed. You simply have a category of "fill songs"...TERRIBLY lazy and SHOULD be unacceptable

People talking on the radio bores me. I want MUSIC. So no, I haven't heard of them. Every time I hear one of these morning shows, it is vulgar and crude anyway.

 

[rageradio]

Crude I can agree with, it's guy talk. Vulgar Ive never heard them being vulgar, don't think they can get away with that.
