Too much musical diversity?

A couple years ago, my boyfriend and I were at a party and they turned on 3WS since they were playing that 80s show they have on Saturdays. We were all like "Oh God!! We're partying to 3WS! WE'RE OLD!!"

One of these days we are going to flip on WJAS and hear Stairway to Heaven. When that happens I will concede the point.

"3WS was a pretty good Oldies station in its day, but Clear Channel is very lucky WJPA's signal does not reach the Pittsburgh metro area right now. "

Maybe WJPA should look into getting the 105.5 Translator.

Little guys can get away with doing stuff that makes no sense because there are no consequences. Listeners know it's not the major leagues so they tend to tolerate more.

If 3WS did this there would be 80 posts up by now.

You hit the nail on the head. On the other hand, you would think that the airstaff in the little nowhere places would take better care and hope to move their careers forward to better markets. Then again, they might have come from bigger markets because they simply could not or would not learn. As for listeners tolerating more because it's not the major leagues I tend to disagree, because people tend to do their part to kill ratings by just tuning out garbage.
