Jax Area Oldies Gone (Again) ???

John FL

John FL

In the "Jax Talk Radio Triplecast" string, one of the comments indicated liberal talk had taken over 105.5. I also noticed this also over the past couple days, then it seemed oldies were back. Today while I was in and out around the Mandarin area, the station was coming in loud and clear and it was talk and from what I can tell, it sounded like a Georgia station. Maybe they are simulcasting on 105.5???

Anyone know what is going on here? Funny thing is over the past couple weeks or so, I was picking up the station better than it had been coming in where I live. Gees, this would be rich if the signal started getting better where oldies lovers had a place to go only to be taken away this quickly. Scott Shannon's webside still shows St. Aug as one of the Florida markets. Thanks for the info.
 
yeah, i am wondering about this as well. what is with this? vary interesting stuff. why not just blow up the eagle or something and bring oldies to jax on a good signal. just my thoughts.
 
True Oldies is sadly gone and a lot of people in St. Augustine are upset, but I sit here thinking about it that Seven Bridge had a Time Brokerage Agreement and if something tells me that I am right is that the owner of the station can pull that out at anytime? Can someone answer that? Seven Bridges is a great radio group and I will say that this no fault of their own and nothing can beat local ownership because its the best thing that any market wants to have is great radio stations being made by the people who live here not people from thousands of miles away. Peace everyone.
 
WBWL, who you ask? Radio Disney 600 AM has a great signal that really goes to waste. Maybe if Disney/ABC/Citadel crashes and sells stations, oldies could find a home on the AM band in Jacksonville again. To my surprise Am stereo is still alive and some broadcasters are playing oldies too. I was listening online to distant stations that just sounded great.
 
WIFO Jesup Ga. runs the true oldies format on the weekend, and they air a local news/talk program for several hours each morning. It's 25 kw., so you could have caught their signal, if conditions were right.
