This statement is as untrue as the data you originally posted which started this particular thread. You do recall it was you who posted incorrect information, don't you?

You do know what you posted is misleading,especially when I talked to those involved DIRECTLY( media and civil servants) instead of a fluff piece you posted The facts I stated earlier hold true,and that bothers you to the point of distorting them. A link to an article favored by you,only demonstrates your compulsiveness to win an argument all the time with few selected facts embelllished in your favor. I am sure you use the Drudge report a lot along with the National Enquirer for back up in desperate situations. Get over it Dave. You are a very good reason why radio has suffered. Now with your OCD,get your last word of denial in.

Re: Minot, WHERE??
I'm one hell of a lot closer to the situation than you, and your "facts" fall short.
Where was their EAS gear when the accident happened?
Who finally installed it days AFTERWARD??
If you don't know these answers, nothing else you say will mean a thing.

THat's it in a Nutshell....... Isn't it !
It's ALL about The Music that ISN'T Played on FM Radio ! !
Millions "know" what "cool" is, and are just looking for a station that can do that WITHOUT THE C-R-A-P!<P ID="signature">______________
1968-1978 -- THE "GOLDEN AGE" OF ALBUM ROCK MUSIC . . .
In spite of Disco and Top 40 in that period,
it yielded the "Motherload" of Great Album Rock Releases

I know what is to be "enterained" by a "Peronality" - - - -
A-N-D
I know what it is to be enterained by "MUSIC".
I NEVER confuse the two.
I and Millions like me are looking for something beyond the crivel, the yuks, and the pablum of "Personality" radio. We'll take it WHEREVER we find it.
It may be on Digital AM someday. Don't really care.
Just give us a local non-personality that knows how to R-o-c-k. Someone that would N-E-V-E-R be satisfied with the "Classic Rock" Ideology.
Could care less how the "ignorant" masses are entertained by the crap of "Mass Media".
