Did iHeartRadio finally kill the Fox?

I tried to stream the Fox today, but it was an all news station from Cincinnati.

Weird. Just put it in just talk

I tried to stream the Fox today, but it was an all news station from Cincinnati.

It's a simulcast of WLW 700 in Cincinnati.

The strange thing is that there is no mention of the switch on social media. The Fox rocks FB page is still available, as well as the website.

Well, as of 8:30 AM the Fox is back

As of 5:30 pm Tuesday evening, WLW was back on

Then a little after 7:00 pm, I heard for Fox rocking again!!!! Weird format... of course we're talking iHeart here.

I wish they would kill WQMF instead. You can look at their playlist (on the website) and it is basically the same 50 bands played over and over and over. WFBQ in Indy has transitioned to a similar format as WQMF, meaning they added 90's and early 2000 bands to their playlist. But unlike WQMF, they continue to play a lot of the classic rock bands that made AOR radio in the 80's (Bryan Adams, REO, Mellencamp, 38 Special, Genesis, REM, U2, Police etc.).

I wish QMF would get into modern rock. Why do they insist on Free Bird and Sweet Home everyday?

 

[jb_ky]

Yeah. Same with WKQQ, they must play the same songs at the same time. I wish they would flip the WWTF station 97.7 and put it on 100.1.

iHeart has been screwing up the Fox's HD2 station since it's inception. It's supposed to switch to fox programming after the Rover Morning Glory show, but sometimes, when no one is paying attention, it gets rerouted to Cincy programming. I turned it on one time a few years back and listened to Cincinnati Reds player interview outtakes. Someone was doing production and that was the Fox's HD2 feed for a while, lol.
