FM Oldies stations left?

T

TheTiger

Are there any surviving FM oldies outlet in NEPA since 92.1/100.1 switched from Oldies to "The Music Station"-type format? In W-B, I could only get the 101.7 translator in the car, mostly with a decent signal by the Wyoming Valley Mall.
That translator is from Scranton and relays "Sunny 105" from the Honesdale area.

If not, I guess I either have to listen to WICK or the new 98.1 WOGL Philadelphia internet stream they already to put up for my oldies fix.

You might try the streaming of WHLM Bloomsburg. They are mostly 60s 70s oldies these days, although there's AC in the mix, too.

No. None left. Which is why I believe at one point very
soon you might see The River go to Oldies. The signal is
decent in Lackawanna County, there is a void and they
have an oldies expert on staff (Bob V) as well as a sales
guy (Bill Brennan) who breathed billing life into an
underperforming Oldies 92. I base this on a hunch but also
the fact you see no promotion for The River. They're waiting
to jump into the pool.

I believe the rating that WWRR got in this past book was nearly double anything that the 104.9 frequency has gotten in nearly 10 years. It's a sign that 104.9 seems to be performing well....I can't foresee any change now.....
