Rewind 94.9 is on.

The people who listened to The Sound would beg to differ. They really, REALLY messed things up with that station once they took it over and then relegated it to HD hell.

We can only hope that Cumulus does something with 94.1
There are alot of irritated former Sound listeners. Look at Tri-State Media Watch, or on Kiese's blog and read the comments.
A format like that on 94.1 would certainly fare better than what is on it now. And it wouldn't be that much different, many of their current listeners would likely stay.
Cumulus would have a WALL of rock in town, and would be THE place to go for anyone trying to reach men.

Alt on 94.1
Active on 96.5
Classic on 92.5

Lastly to HotPatrick: I appreciate your taste in music, and you are welcome to it, of course. But the reason, Jessie's Girl and 867-5309/Jenny get played so much is: they test well. Music test, after music test - those songs will score in the top 100 every time.

Well, if he calls it grandpa music, he clearly doesn't understand the music or its target audience very well. That's fine; he doesn't have to. It's the kind of music I heard growing up (when it wasn't being forced to listen to country or 60's music). I'm not a grandpa, and I don't think I'm quite old enough to be one. My ex-stepson, though, is about to finish his first year of high school. So, that time might not be too far off!

I've found Rewind to be a pretty good station to stream while I'm getting ready for work in the morning. I was previously streaming Bob FM out of Austin.

The Sound WAS a great station, but that was when Entercom launched the format in November 2006. Once Entercom exited stage left, The Sound became less and less of a priority. Had Entercom not sold off 94.9 The Sound would still be on the airwaves today. Once the staff was fired and The Sound was moved to 97.3, the writing was on the wall unfortunately. :'(
 
I notcied yesturday around 4pm that whoever was at the board for 94.9 turned the volume up on it Now I get a krackling over mogulating sound slightly from my stereo now. I reported it to them but they have not fixed it yet. it only happend when my EQ is on but when its off it dont do it. I know its not my EQ since all other local stions dont have the krackling or over mogulating sound. I notcice the krakle more from the right channle then the left only when thier is losts of bass in a song.

The krackle reminds me of the one they had on XM radio online.
 
I am wondering what they are planning for a Morning Show? Jenn & Jeff on Q have the Soccer Mom demo wrapped up. They also need a Midday & Afternoon show.
 
"Live" local morning shows - especially if they want to be competitive = $$$$
No sure in this economic environment if Bonneville will spend the bucks at this point in time.
Hate to say and/or predict it but they may eventually "voice track" the station from another market?
Stay tuned!
