Jacksonville Does anyone know if WSOS and WNNR have flipped?

Seeing these two new brandings on Norsan's website. No websites or streams yet.

WNNR was bilingual top 20. Now flipped to Mexican Tropical. RDS (on 97.3 translator) just shows La Que Te Mueve. WSOS is now Mexican Tropical as well. No RDS on 94.1. The songs are similar but different playlists are run on both stations. Neither 94.1 or 97.3 are strong enough to be picked up north of Jacksonville.

Going off the info on Norsan's website, WNNR plays older Tropical songs while WSOS plays both new and classic Tropical songs as well as a couple of Spanish CHR songs.

I am assuming from the use of the term "Tropical" and jhirzel88's post that these stations are targeting Mexicans and, maybe, northern Central Americans. In the Caribbean stations and listeners don't favor the word "tropical" to describe salsa, merengue and older forms .like rumba and cha-cha-cha and the like.

With the brand and logo of WSOS being listed on the website being a direct clone of WFYY, I assumed it was a direct clone of it's Orlando sister station.

In the Dominican Republic, the term does seem popular with stations. In the capital, Independencia F.M. claims to be "la emisora tropical más importante de Santo Domingo" in it's advertising. Super K in La Vega's Instagram bio says "la mejor selección de música tropical y el alma de las fiestas," with those being just two examples.
