While attending a Somerset Patriots minor league baseball game on Wednesday evening, I scanned the FM dial to see what would come in at that place (Bridgewater, Somerset County, NJ). As I tuned past WWFS-FM 102.7 (Fresh 102.7), who's voice did I hear? Michael Maze. Knowing he does the PM drive on WMRQ-FM 104.1 of Waterbury/Hartford, I have to ask a question: Which station is he voice tracking to? ???

Michael Maze in New York City?
- Thread starter KML0224

I'm 100% certain it was him. He even used the same Michael Maze name.
So wait...he's on WBMW-FM 106.5 of Ledyard, too?
This is making me think of Ed McMann, back when he was used on WHCN-FM 105.9 a few months back. I caught him one time on WWLI-FM 105.1 (AC) in Providence, RI. It was a midday shift around 1 PM or so.

Oh it's definitely him, he works during the week at Red Wolf in Ledyard (That's where WMRQ is operated) and also does the Fresh evening shift in NYC. I've been told he's tracked in NYC, but I'm not positive that's true. I just know for sure that he's tracked in CT on both stations. He took over middays on Soft Rock when Heidi West left for mornings at WSRS in Worcester in March.

Hi! Saw my name in a post and wanted to set things straight 
I am LIVE in NYC weeknights on WWFS Fresh 102.7
I started doing part time at Fresh a little over a year ago (was with PLJ part time before that) and started doing the evening show January 2012.
I am tracked on MRQ and WBMW (from my home studio here in CT) and I take great pride in my on air work in Connecticut. I do what I feel is as close to "LIVE Radio" as possible...Sometimes I track breaks minutes before they air so I can stay topical.
I wanted to stay on air in my "home" state so I could continue things like my annual food drive the "Friends of Maze food drive" for the CT food bank as well as continue to have fun on the air in a place I have lived in for so many years.
I can also be heard on WYRE St. Augustine FL (pm drive) 105.5 & 94.4 The Rock Pocatello ID (mid days) and weekends on Eagle Country 97.5 South Burlington VT.
I hope to announce a new and very exciting project very soon...Fingers crossed!
Thanks for listening!

A little bit of BOTH...
I always solicit for requests via WBMW.COM and we check them daily. I have called listeners and recorded for on air. We also have a "phone op" who passes TONS of info to me daily.
I gotta say that BMW is a pleasure to work with...They really get it and go above and beyond to deliver the best radio possible.

I asked because sometimes, the content of the lunchtime callers on 'BMW is so vague ("we're giving away a Disney vacation!" [Caller] "No way!" "Yeah, keep listening to WBMW!" [Caller] "Okay!") that I think they might have been taken from WWFS calls... : Anyway, I must admit, you are doing a fine job at filling Heidi's giant sandals, even if it's not live... Kudos!
Anyway, I must admit, you are doing a fine job at filling Heidi's giant sandals, even if it's not live... Kudos!While I applaud your hard work, I feel that voice tracking and corporate radio are killing local radio. Keeping a station "sounding" local isn't the same as actually being local. Airing a syndicated show isn't local radio (even if they attempt to make it sound local, like Tom Kent on WDRC).
How can talent quickly and accurately respond to local weather emergencies or stings like that if they aren't even local. Take for example the response to the Springfield Area tornadoes last year. Most of the stations didn't even drop out of their syndicated shows to go local- until after the event occurred. How is that keeping the public informed of a potentially dangerous situation??
