Don't drink the juice in on Pendell Road, Poughkeepsie!

> Im checking the site as I type..........still nothing same info
I barely listened to the station this am or really at all today
but Im sure they'll be no information
Alls I heard this am was Scotty saying he was still there
Hmmm I wish theyd update the site already
 
>OOO also I went on pdh's main site anything K&M is off
no names no pics no nadda past or present
 
There was plenty of info. The station's GM Chuck Benfer was on the air with Robyn Taylor during her shift (10am-11am) explaining what was going on, (essentially the K&M had given a day's notice and cleared out without giving WPDH a chance to match their new offer) taking listener calls, and being very upfront and forthright.

So you are mistaken here:

Goes to show you what location can do. SPK and PDH come in clear as a bell between Rhinebeck and Hyde Park. KISS reception suffers from a TON of multipath interference. They are almost unlistenable in areas on rt 9 in poughkeepsie.

The truth according to Chuck...now there's an oxymoron.

I'm surprised that Robyn has stayed with this train wreck...she is the consummate professional who is as personable on the air as she is off the air. I had the pleasure of working with her at 98FaMe/ CZX years ago.
