Predictions of 94.9

[davideduardo]

I'd go "Hot Jazz" on 94.9. Billy Cobham, Weather Report, selected Mose Allison and Dave Brubeck in the gold rotation, sprinkle in a little Jeff Beck. I'd listen all night.

And you'd be alone.

Nice to hear from you again Mr Gleason. I've missed your magnificense.

As always, when presented by reality, you obfuscate.

A true jazz format in a market with the kind of demographics SD has would have a hard time getting even a 1 share... with something in the 0.5 range more likely.

As I said, if you listened, you'd probably be the "only" listener in the PPM world because stations with a low cume that got huge TSL in the diary system get nearly no cume and low TSL in the PPM.

KKGO in LA was a jazz station, not a "smooth jazz" station when it changed format in 2000. In the diary, it was hitting below a 1 share 25-54 despite decades of heritage in the format. Today, 11 years later, they would have even less 25-54 as the interested audience has aged and the market has become considerably more Hispanic. And that is a comparable situation to SD, where it would be worse with no heritage station keeping up interest.

No, I'm just responding to a post where the key word was spelled incorrectly. ;D

It's probably time to take this one outside!

Ah, typos, an argument of substance. You are magnificent indeed.

You know looking back historically at 94.9, the frequency has never really done well. When it was Y95 doing a top-40/CHR style format with Jeff and Jer in the mornings (when they were actually good and Jerry was not some old bastard bichin at everything) the station was a top contender. But since the Y95 time it has been a mediocre station at best. In this market the best thing (in my opinion) would be to go CHR and try to split 933's rating in half. Or go with a Hispanic format of one form or another. The Hispanic audience is growing everyday, and usually (for the advertiser) they have cash money to spend.

If they were to go all out Classic Hits they would bury Walrus in one week. Then they would own such a demo between Country and Classic Hits.

I know some words can be misinterpreted, and qualities such as sarcasm and hyperble can be missed in web posts, but tell me how you misunderstod an icon! ???

Y-95 was never a Top 40/CHR. Y-95 was a Hot AC (or Adult Top 40) competing with B100. San Diego did not have a Mainstream CHR during that period, as Q106 and Jammin'Z90 were both Rhythmic CHR. You had to listnen to KIIS FM on 1150 in order to hear a Mainstream CHR (and good luck with that).

Since it's so important to you, you misspellsed "hyperbole."
