Why Spike 1140 doesn't clear Penn Gillette's show live from 11-noon, cutting the next-day and otherwise unheard of Phil Hendrie replay to two hours and giving the new CBS/FreeFM talker a home in the city from where his show originates. The theme would fit in well with Hendrie, who I like, but already gets his three hours live at night. The only reason I can come up with is that CBS wants to use FreeFM positioning on the show, which of course KSFN isn't part of.

It will clear soon enough once 107.5 becomes FreeFM.

Penn Censored?
On Penn's first show that aired LIVE on Spike 1140 today it sounds like Penn was censored toward the end of his show. They kept cutting him off and going to commercials. It also sounds like KSFN picks up the feed of the show from Free FM
New York. So maybe Tom Chiasauno was cutting him off because he didn't like the story about god that he was telling. I recorded it off KSFN so I'll post the link to the show here when I edit out the commercials.

Re: Penn Censored?
The feed is from NY, but the problem was that the power kept going off and on from Penn's studio on the SW side.
Should be fixed with a new UPS on Wednesday.
Tom Chiasauno controls the LV power grid, so I would blame him as well!

1140 signal and other tourist observations
Just returned from Vegas and was surprised by just how bad that 1140 signal is. I knew that there were a lot of tight nulls towards Henderson, but trying to get Tom Leykis (hey, if there was anything good on I wouldn't have had to listen to him... the Radio Shopping Show got old quick) around 5pm, even near the south end of the Strip was unbearable. 1140 from the High Desert news/talk trimulcast kept bleeding through, although I suppose from 7-10pm the fact that they're both running Hendrie isn't as bad.
On the subject, since the signals are so close and imaged the same, who stole KNEWS from whom? 970 in Coachella or 970 in Vegas? Hopefully they're not poaching the "How to get there and what to wear" crap in California, though.
I guess that was Penn Gillette on at 11am this morning that I heard; knew it wasn't Hendrie and it didn't sound that bad. For a lowly rated AM station, the imaging sounds better IMHO than that big-mouthed clown on KXNT, KDWN's overlapping brokered shows with liners at the bottom of the hour, KNEWS' non-existent imaging, or anything else. I kinda like that 1140.
Other observations: 1230 signal seemed unusually strong around 5am as I drove north on the 515/93, but sucked everywhere else at night. 1400 actually might make more money than I thought... although a total bore; why aren't callers actually heard on the air? Ugh. 1280's signal sounded surprisingly good in their COL of Henderson for about 1 mile, considering that IIRC their tower is further north since they're a Class D.
One other question... any other hotels that you're aware of that have broadcast studios other than Sunset Station and the Stratosphere? Thanks...
