Miami/Fort Lauderdale Have WRAZ/WCMQ-HD2/W295GE flipped?

101.9 La Kalle

101.9 La Kalle

I'm streaming Salsa 106.3 on the LaMusica website and I don't hear any "Salsa 106.3" sweepers and the legal ID I heard on the stream was "WPYO-HD2 Maitland, Orlando! Donde la salsa vive."

Here's a link to the stream if you want to hear it for yourself.
Salsa 106.3
 
I thought the 106.3 translator was supposed to overcome WRAZ's deficient signal in Miami proper. Guess that still wasn't enough to make it work.

The station had no jocks at all. Of course it wouldn't work.

There are successful jockless stations in the US, but none of them in Spanish if I recall.

And I love salsa, but with an old leaning genre, that's an additional albatross.

SBS has a successful salsa station but 1) it's in a 100% Spanish speaking market (Puerto Rico) and 2) it's salsa part-time. It's full-on news-talk in the morning and personality talk in the afternoon.
 
WCMQ is now using the Salsa 106.3 Jingles resung as "Zeta Nueve Dos Punto Tres", but still keeping the Salsa + AC format.

Missed opportunity to use the WZNT jingle resung as "Zeta! Noventa y dos!"

They've always pronounced it Nueve-Dos ever since they rebranded the station from Clásica. They even used Willy Chirino for imaging.

So they emulated a Puerto Rican SBS station, but probably not the one you would think.
