KMAD flips to Classic Rock

[LibertyNT]

It appears after nearly 10 years of holding the Mainstream Rock format from Dial-Global, KMAD 102.5 has flipped to full on Classic Rock.
I cannot tell if its made in-house now, or if they picked up the DG Classic Rock feed.

They could call it K-Mad, or Mad Dog Radio. LOL

There actually is a Mad Dog Radio -- on satellite. It's a SiriusXM sports talk channel programmed by former WFAN New York host Chris "Mad Dog" Russo. Because Sirius, the star, is the "dog star," a couple of other channels have canine names: Raw Dog, a raunchy comedy channel, and Road Dog, a channel with talk shows for truckers.

Well its always been called Mad Rock 102.5, which they are keeping. The call letters date back to their location in Madill, OK on 102.3.

Does that mean they will still play Freebird at least once a day?

I must have missed something or the definition of classic rock has changed. They've always had a "gold" rock format, for lack of a better term. I did notice that they are skewing older, like Jefferson Airplane, etc.

The main difference now is they removed all current rock hits, went strictly classic rock. I noticed they play the same songs at the same time as KBUS 101.9 out of Paris, so I'm lead to believe they use the same service from DG.
