Emmis Says Goodbye To Hot 93.3

My guess would probably be for Hot 93-3 for that station to become a station for Christmas Music. 24/7 You'll be Hearing Great songs like "It's The Most Wonderful Time of the Year" Until Christmas Day. So Better get use to it... It happened over at KATZ-FM in St. Louis, and it could happen here in Austin.
 
I hope KLBJ-AM will still be AM, even if they simulcast on FM. The AM goes so much farther than the FM does.
 
So basically, Hot 93.3 is a victum, because of what two guys from KLBJ said racially about hispanics, so Emmis throws on a hispanic station to satisfy their outrage? Is that what this is all about?

They are putting a Spanish regional Mexican station on 107.1. That is hardly what you are claiming.
 
The signal of 93.3 is MUCH better in Austin than is used to be, I assume it has something to do with this cool little video I found (from back when it was KLNC):

When 93.3 signed on in '86, the signal had issues but I guess the new antenna they installed helped a lot. You can get 93.3 on a portable radio in downtown Austin. Granted it's not the best but it's better than 107.1. It hardly sounds like a rimshot. And yes, lots of empty ranch land but also some very desirable zip codes for KGSR.

BIG question is how will Emmis execute Regional Mexican. Will they do it right?

Yep. They hired the right people, and as a former, and proud, Emmis person they are generally pretty good at programming.
 
always tuned to 93.3 when driving to SA or even just going to austin. sad to see it go. radio is an unfaithful wife. please no more spanish stations.
