Wonder what city that's in? FCC database shows no WFDM listed.
Goodbye Gold. Pilgrim's involved.

Bullseye Elephant. I would guess this means certain curtains for WWFT in it's flavor of the year...Elephant said:
Let's see...95.9 couldn't make it as the only oldies station in town with zero competition...so why not take on an 800 pound gorilla named WIBC? Pure brilliance...
Wait, lets create a talk station called the Point. That was the last incarnage (or just carnage) with Liddy and Soloman.
Talk Talk Talk to Soloman...
You talk, we talk,
Talk to Soloman.
Let me reload my gun and get ready for Indy's answer to Jim Jones....

Why is 95.9 even attempting talk again they barely even make it to downtown indy as is and then its totally obliterated by both WFMS and WHHH (is WHHH still on the former Bank 1 Tower what ever its called these days)
WHHH left the Bank 1 (now Chase Bank) tower back in the late 90's. I understand the rent was eating them alive. They've been on the Riley Towers since then. That's several city blocks north of their first site.MikeStandardsFromIndiana said:

Two examples of why there's not a site on Radio-Info just for Indianapolis and instead, for the entire state of Indiana.

I agree...it didn't go any farther after the move but it was noatbly stronger where it already went.bigtime said:
Between WFMS and WHHH even on the riley towers will still obliverate 95.9 any where in Downtown and Further North. as its as i was thinking earlier today. While 93.9 has an almost city grade signal liscened to Fishers. 95.9 has A City grade signal for Johnson county only LOL they will fail on talk attempt 2. lets see since the early 90's 95.9 has been Top 40, Gospel, Talk, Christian, Oldies, and Now Talk againBobOnTheJob said:
Last time they had a shot was in the pre WHHH days. No IBOC hiss from WFMS and no WHHH. They were playing top 40 with a fair amount of rap & it was pulling almost a 6 share! I'm glad I don't own that thing...MikeStandardsFromIndiana said:
Plus pre WHHH days and pre IBOC Hiss of WFMS there is another thing that also hinders the current WIAU soon to be freedom talk 95.9 is that WKUZ in Wabash on 95.9 also kills any chance of WIAU going further north than indianapolis. i think back during the top 40 days of Q96 i did get them here in anderson but thats not even a question unless there is dx skip of getting 95.9 franklin over 95.9 WabashBobOnTheJob said:
And the Great Indianapolis Format Shuffle of 2007 continues.
I can't imagine that the talker syndicators would prefer to be on 95.9 than back on WXNT. With WXNT's 2006 talk lineup, they were pulling twice the share of WIAU 95.9.
95.9 disappeared from the Summer ratings book. WXNT has been stable through it all.

I think ABC will put Hannity back on WXNT before shopping him to 95.9 because they probly want Sean on a Main City Grade Signal instead of a Rimshot signal that doesnt even make it to the most of Indianapolis though
I'm sure there's no real justification for this, but I wonder if there's any chance Radio One will eventually offer to purchase 95.9 and use it to simulcast Hot 96's signal. 96.3 gets killed about 20 miles outside of Indianapolis on I -65 by WJAA in Austin. Having the 95.9 signal would fill in the holes to in the southern portion of the metro, but I digress.
Seems I saw the county by county on 96.3 long ago & virtually 100% of their audience was in Marion County, even though they reach into the most populated part of Johnson County. If that's still true, it wouldn't be justifiable. WIAU could not be built today...it needs to be 43 miles from WFMS..and it's less than 20 now. WFMS and 95.9 both signed on at low power & cross-waivered each other to increase to full A and B facilities as they existed at the time. 95.9 will never move 1 inch further north of it's current site.Rowdy1234 said:
WFDM are the calls for 91.9FM, on the campus of Fairleigh Dickinson University. Not sure how 95.9 could use them.......
