Rumor to who? To you? I've never seen a more non-informational post.

Cite sources, or else you're just trying to stir up gossip. It's childish and stupid.

I don't think it's stupid... Some changes real soon would make a whole lot of sense...<P ID="signature">______________

Hey, anonymous rumblings and non-sourced rumor? Gimmee!

I assume the shift would be a swap between 106.3 and 107.1...

G-Rock's coverage gets further into more of the currently Mainstream Alternative-free New York market, while not sacrificing its existing listener base...

(Also, Long Island-to-NYC commuting listeners could go from 107.1 WLIR to 107.1 G-Rock once the interference zone clears up.)

And The Breeze loses, kind of (would there be an upside for them?)

Sure, they get to brand as "106 The Breeze" at 106.3 and 106.5, and, assuming they're synchronized, they don't have to worry about adjacent channel interference as much.

What happens to 99.7 in all of this is a bit of a mystery though. That station seems pretty useless as far as Press is concerned, unless Ocean County's G-Rock simulcast moves there. Then 98.5, with a better signal than 99.7, would be freed for something else.

Could it be staff changes such as new midday talent at G-Rock and a new PD/morning man at the Breeze?

I think there may be something to those rumors! LOL!

Given the introduction of a new frequency in Southern Ocean County, it's most likely that the changes would be with the simulcasters down that way.

Perhaps a 3rd simulcast will be added in Southern Ocean...

I am still going with:

G-Rock on 106.3 WHTG & 106.5 WKOE (I would call it "G106-3&5")
The Breeze stays on 107.1 WWZY & 99.7 WBHX
98.5 WBBO relaunches with a new format<P ID="signature">______________

THE BREEZE WOULD HAVE TO BE JUST PLAIN STUPID to go to 106.3 in monmouth----107.1 gets MIKE FITZGERALD to his old listeners in southern brooklyn ,staten island and maybe even breezy point queens!!!!!!106.3 gets to me on ave h in midwood-but not as clear as 107.1!!!!!!!!************BY THE WAY,you can get 1310 shore country in sheepshead bay,riis park and on the sands of brighton beach -- DAYTIME ONLY--I added that tidbit for all the former y107 listeners.

If there's a staff change neccessary at G-Rock, it's their morning show, and nothing else. It seems to be the weakest part of the day for G who has an otherwise amazing airstaff.
