KFIV/1360: What A Shame...

[BossRadioDJ]

I'd love to hear KFIV management's excuse for this: for more than a half-hour (and I've been listening since before 5 PM) their satellite feed has been stuttering and cutting in and out ... and since it's not really a radio station on a Sunday afternoon, nobody has done anything about it.

When the automation moves to a local break, the local PSAs and station promos are playing just fine. The second the satellite feed is re-joined .. chop, chop, chop, chop.

Not really a radio station? If nobody in the building is paying attention to the computer that is your "radio station," and no human is there to answer the phone calls from listeners pointing out the problem (which they should have noticed on their own), it's NOT REALLY A RADIO STATION.

I would loooooooove to hear the PD or GM of the Modesto "cluster" explaining how something like this could happen. You know what this tells me? NOBODY cares.

This happens alot more with KWSX-1280 but that station is even less of a radio station than KFIV. At least, KFIV still has a local show on weekdays.

the whole Stockton/Modesto cluster is probably run out of Sacramento anyway.What were you listening to KFIV for Boss?

It's just a job for most people--a gig.

You rarely hear The River or The Vine jump the tracks and the reason is they pay attention. If something goes wrong they know it and they fix it ASAP.

Broadcasters need to follow their example.

I agree with The River, however The vine's programming is delivered via Dial Global's Adult standards satellite service. The programming there is not local based.
