MIXX-FM Voiced Tracked or LIVE?

R

radio lover

I had the chance to listen to them at length today and I'm guessing that the morning show is live but mid-days (10:00AM-3:00PM) is voiced tracked. From what I heard like the incorrect time, and the lack of mentioning the pouring rain and temp during the weather forcasts leads me to think voice tracked. Not sure about the other shifts?
 
Not sure about the middays, I usually listen to Scott Steele or Rush during that slot, but I am pretty sure afternoons and nights are live on WMGI. I always hear phone bits and contests on those shows (if that still means anything, I guess those could be dubbed in easy). My kids have called iuests before and been played back on the air. If you check out their website, it looks like they are pretty involved with features on both PM shows. The afternoon guy always does a segment around 5:30 with Jesse Walker from WTWO Weather. And late last night (around 11 or so) I heard them taking about the weather watches and stuff that were just being issued, and about a school delay due to flooding. I couldn't find anyone else taking about the weather other than the Kevin Orpurt dubbed in breaks at Hi 99. I don't think Doc Long is live at WTHI at night, but I would bet The River and Mix are the only two live at night in the market. In the PM Drive, I'm pretty sure everyone is live except WBOW and WAXI.
 
If you check around the dial...Bill Cain and Natalie are on 95.9 The Valley as well. I have heard her doing live calls in the afternoon during the 5pm hour so I would say it's a safe bet that she is voice tracked on MIX. I have heard Bill doing live break with contest winners on both but that's it. Since he is PD and Ops Mgr. I would say that he most likely voice tracks unless there has to be a live break.

I believe that the only stations in town that actually have anyone on during the midday are HI 99 & The River.
