All I can get is a dead carrier and/or cross channel interference for the last couple hours on 97.1.

What is it with you people? If a station is off the air for more than a few minutes or if some other technical glitch happens you automatically assume that something's up or that they're flipping formats. Here's a possibility from left field: Maybe they're just having trouble with the transmitter. I'm sure they'll be back on the air soon if they're not already.
Some of you really need to get a clue and a grip on reality.

I assume that "something's up" when a station like that -- one that is part of a cluster owned by a major communications company -- disappears for more than a few minutes. Stations like Hank ought to have a lot of contingencies planned.
And now a possibility from Center Field: The station is on the air, but at reduced power so that I'm out of the listening area. That's what I had *really* thought might be happening.
And I'm 100% sure that Hank isn't flipping formats. Or as the local newspaper would say, 124%.

It's definitely a sign that either Real 97 or Mix 97 is on it's way back. They must be using the silence to adjust the mic processing for more talk.

wow Hank sure seems to be Talking up Real good or playing the good ol Mix 97.1 Hot AC Music. Seems to me i'm hearing Joe Diffie at 7:46pm on Friday night January 27, 2006. And give me a good reason why a format that has given them the best ratings in over a decade would go back to a format or try something else that would put them back into the upper 1's in the ratings.
