I'm just listening for shits n giggles..

As much as I and others hate bthem, the stream sounds great.. and the station is well produced.

Yeah I agree. I came across the station by accident. My first impression was that it sure sounded professional. It's a nice alternative on the AM side. Good music. Good Air Talent. I Like it. Unfortunately the ratings will be low. Rhode Islanders are driven by habit. Most people in this state go to one station on the AM side. That will continue.

Im listening now,sounds good!!!

It opened in realplayer and it kept dropping the stream!! (Would only play about 5 seconds and then it dropped it)

I finally opened it in WMP and it plays fine

I heard Shine on my trips back home. Well produced, and sounds a lot like my former FM, 89.5 WSJI. I'll agree, a good alternative to some of the dreck out there. And Paul, hate it or not, it's a good template production and element-wise, for you to emulate at WABV.

Well......We now have on our area AM band all the players necessary for our own radio version of a "spaghetti western":

"THE GOOD, THE BAD, AND THE SILENT": Starring:

The Good: "Shine 1220"
The Bad: 1320 WARL
The Silent: 990

And now, a nice big bucket of over-buttered popcorn......yum. ;D

I'm listening to Trinity's Mid-day show on Shine right now..this station sounds darn good for
this type of format/station.

Thanks for posting the link, Paul.

I worked at a station that sounded something like Shine several years back. When the balance of programs/music is done right, it can work. I was able to pay off the owner's mortgage with this type of format.

Then he decided to take it to satellite-fed dreck..I retired out of there..and the owner couldn't make it work.
That station is G-O-N-E gone.

DR,
You may be right. Even though some of the local stuff on WSJI sounded rough, the national music feed(from SkyLight)was well produced and fun to listen to. I used to love the countdown show we ran: 20-The Countdown Magazine, with Jon Rivers.
