THE WOLF RULES

What does the Blue line mean??
It seperates a team's defensive zone from the neutral zone, while the red line divides the rink in half.

But that's not what you're asking, is it?

Sorry, nevermind...

No

If you're talking about the blue circles on the "service area" maps (not the ones on the application), they are the 60dBu [signal strength] contours. The 70dBu "city-grade contours," which are not shown, lie well within the blue circles; if you're used to looking at FM coverage maps on Radio-Locator remember that the inner circles they show (in red) are the 60dBu contours. Although they call it "local" that grossly overestimates a station's real world coverage. What they don't show is the city-grade, which describes a signal that comes in well on almost all radios (car, clock radio or inside buildings).

Between the city-grade and the limit of their "service area" a station may have problems, but beyond the 60dBu contour the real problems begin; a signal can begin to diminish rapidly and is often subject to fading or interference. Example, KFWR on your average car radio: great in Weatherford, okay in west Fort Worth, beginning to really have trouble around 360 and basically gone east of Grand Prairie.

Well KSCS wont gain on anything. Their management is still terrible. Their promotions suck. Their morning show is washed up. They could VT that thing and get the numbers they are getting - it is total whitewash.

I heard a little rumor that there are about to be some major changes over there anyway (think morning co-hosts and promotions) I hope they have a "plan b" when the money is gone.

if not - oops - you dont have much of a life.

Im not bitter - im fried!
 
I personnaly take exception to "Texas Music" failing. With over 50% of the playlist being New Texas Country, 95.3 "The Range!" plays Texas Country music daily, not to mention specialty shows like Texas Friday Nites (Texas Music chart & Texas Regional Radio chart) . Commercially , is it a viable market, the jurys still out,,however,,venues that advertise these artists will tell you otherwise!

ROFL!!!!! Glad I wasn't drinking when I read that, or else you'd owe me a new monitor, little1. ;)

Just the same, thanks for the laugh. 8)
