Great idea!!!! How fast could we make this happen?

I'd probably bet that Radio One will get the massive WKDN signal, putting WRNB's format there to better compete with WDAS-FM.Why not a Phlly version of
NJ 101.5? Hey, we're as Philly as a cheesesteak, Your talk station, 94 YSP!!!
Keeping the Iggles, of course!!! Would 950 simulcast 95.7 if it went oldies, or would we see ESPN or Harold Camping on that frequency? I could see sending 107.9 back to Bridgeton and 107.7, but doubt it'll happen...

That would be my first point....on AM and FM.

Like your FM bandplan. What would you do with the market's AM stations.

Here's what I would do:

WFIL - this SHOULD be the AM Oldies station!
WIP - Sports, no change
WWJZ - Change COL/TX to Horsham, as planned: MOR/Standards
WPHE - Put the WPEN informercials here.
WVCH - No Change
WTMR - Liberal Talk/Air America
WWDB - Change COL to Norristown. Do local programming; get night authorization.
WURD - Hispanic Talk
WPEN - ESPN Sports.
WNTP - No format change. Dump Medved, Hewitt, & weekend infomercials.
KYW - Update current format.
WNAP - Put the informercials here that won't fit on WPHE.
WPHT - No format change. A few host changes. Cut back on Sinatra.
WEMG - Hispanic/Tropical.
WHAT - Dump Air America. Return to all African-American talk.
WDAS - Sell to Salem. Put WFIL's religion programs here.
WNWR - Change COL to Bala Cynwyd; get nighttime authorization; Radio Disney.
