Atlantic City/Cape May Equity Atlantic City To iHeart

If it's anything like Kiss 95.9 in Delaware, no thanks.
I can see iHeart not tinkering with the imaging of these income producing stations and leaving well enough alone. Yes, possibly bringing in syndicated shows and voicetracked jocks to fill in automated dayparts Equity has right now, but no imaging changes. Besides, the Buzz was Kiss FM from 2008 to 2013.

Now there's always the decent chance that I'm wrong though.
 
You know what's interesting, I've heard both WBGO and, most recently, WGBZ, on 103.1 FM, even though they don't have translators anywhere close to that dial. Something has to be off there.

A little late but I also noticed that during tropo. I even got a video of it once. Funny seeing stations overpower translators

@ashman887 @SKFlyers93 the WBGO/WGBZ ending up on 103.1 despite not having a 103.1 translate is easy to solve.

The input for W276CW 103.1 Atlantic city is an on air pick up WVBH 88.3 Beach Haven West. And WGBZ/WBGO are on 88.3 and they over ride the off air pick up of WVBH at W276CW

Not a popular opinion around here, but I barely care about terrestrial radio in my own market, so (though my heart used to be in Atlantic City radio) I certainly have no idea whether Gary has any live jocks on WAYV outside of mornings. But if he does, they should be working on those resumes, because this is iHeart we're talking about. WAYV is going to be an automated jukebox, if it isn't already.

I could be mistaken, but I think their midday host at ZXL is live. My hunch is that most, if not all, of the stations will be voice tracked. So, maybe not entirely an automated jukebox, but without anyone in the studio it would be rather close.

From @lanceventa early in the thread
WAYV has been all remote tracked outside of mornings for years. WTTH is jockless outside of Steve Harvey in mornings. The Buzz is jockless outside of a syndicated mixshow on weekends. WZXL has a morning show and their PD doing 10am-5pm.
