RUMOR:Party 105.3 DJs all fired

If you haven't already heard, TMO has fired all of their staff at radio ops, including Party 105.3. They are either getting out of the radio business or going completely automated. This is a rumor I heard on the Party 105.3 message board. I've noticed Party 105.3's signal has been much weaker than usual this summer. Even in Riverhead I have trouble getting a clear signal.

it seems to be official-the party's over;there's much wringing of hands over on the soon-to-disappear message board over there.I guess the no-ratings thing finally proved to be a bit much.eddie T has stated that they're done,and there's teasers being broadcast about how the sound of radio will change on Sept.15th.In the meantime, Strong Island internet radio will surely take up the slack, with great club/house programming at www.strongisland.com<P ID="edit"><FONT class="small">Edited by lalumia on 09/07/05 05:32 AM.</FONT></P>

I usually can get them iiN SE Nassau (but thats with antenna in a certain position) right now can't pick up squat though due to tropo (WSAD from philly is booming in) hope this is nothing other than a major staff change, though I don't have a good feeling about this

This is not a good thing when all the dj's get fired. All I can say is that it was a great station in the WRONG location. They should have simulcasted this station on 92.7 when they had the chance. :(

Man, that sucks that the staff all lost their jobs. An automated party 105.3 is gonna be no fun, nor will a DEAD Party 105.3. And if TMO goes off the air, that means we lose not only party,,,,But dance friendly Modern Rocker WLIR. Thats a double WHAMMY, losing two Dance Supporters at once. Bummer
 
im shocked they lasted this long...they signed on memorial day 1998...they truly were great

If I am not mistaken, didn't Star 93.7 in Boston plan out a concert weeks ahead before they flipped to "Mike?" (aka : their version of "Jack") Did they still do the concert? I don't remember it happening.

Yesterday, I heard them strong all night in New Jersey due to tropo. I cried because it may be the last time I hear it.
