Oldies on WTTF,Tiffin

Came across the OhioBiz.com website where it has streaming links for stations.. Clicked on WTTF's audiolink...and was well pleased with its 60s/70s mix...and it has LOCAL JOCKS (I hope). The website link is down though. I called up there and asked why but they hung up on me! They still have a great news department although Frank Barber I do believe is now retired. Also hear that BAS only operates the station with an LMA...it's owned by a local guy now.(see Wiki article)

But anyway...here is the audiostream if you want to listen.(Windows media )

mms://74.218.80.194:3801/

No 50s or early 60s...no PAMS or JAM jingles...but not complaining!

If you mean WTTF AM, that's BAS's ABC "Timeless Favorites" feed they're replacing humans with up in Sandusky also. The voice trackers often change their names to become other jocks/newspeople on different shifts. Really not much live & local about it except maybe a real morning shift & local call letters slapped over some cue tones. The feed is VERY watered down also. If you listen long enough you can easily hear Pet Clark's "I Know a Place" every 10 hours or so. p.s- www.wttf.com is out of order- Most likely because they have one web guy for all 8 automated giant juke boxs.

Local guy???

I don't know what the hell wiki article you read, but it's not correct. Syndicated talk show host Doug Stephan owns it. Here is the information from the wiki article:


WTTF was recently spun off by BAS Broadcasting to radio talk show host (and Heidelberg College graduate) Doug Stephan's company Tiffin Broadcasting LLC. BAS will continue to operate WTTF via an LMA(local marketing agreement) until late 2009 [1]. Stephan's morning talk program is also aired on WTTF.

According to the October 25th issue of the Advertiser-Tribune, WTTF will soon be donated to Heidelberg College as a gift by alumnus Doug Stephan. It's not known at this time what its future holds.[2]
 
Actually, I hear most of the antiquated inventory was sold off by J. Rizer Auction & Liquidators when Clear Channel decided to rebuild. There was a lot of great vintage equipment.
