WBUD-AM 1260 update 2

Signs of WBUD'S inpending change to satellite delivered MOR oldies ac HAVE BEGUN TO APPEAR on BUD.

BUD'S new slogan and jingle as well as the ABC satellite delivered network's is Unforgettable Favorites!I heard that one today around 20 and 50 past each hour in between songs,with the regular Jersey Memories jingle played after the next song.

Also some national ads have popped up too on BUD.

It looks like the change to satellite will be happening within the next few weeks.

As i said before its sad such a local institution like WBUD is going down the tubes due to corporate owners deciding that their bottom line is better than the local flavor of the station.<P ID="edit"><FONT class="small">Edited by Vince2003 on 01/25/06 11:36 PM.</FONT></P>
 
SO no one is left? except for the board ops for Rider basketball and Trenton Thunder baseball games? What about the mornings?

99.7/106.3/107.1 The Breeze uses "Unforgettable favorites" as well...
 
No one is left at BUD its just automated for now but will be switching to satellite very soon the 25 YEAR OLD MOR nostalgia format is ending soon.


The only person left is Jack Pinto and his sunday sinatra show which i believe will continue in the new format.I think he pays for his Sunday morning airtime and probably voicetracks his show from his home.Thus he never comes to the studio and BUD gets paid for his services etc.

Its sad to see BUD in this state at present.

Right down the block from each other, its understandable that there can be some confusion...Heck, didn't some of the jocks go home there after there shift? In fact, I believe that there air shift is there "free time" that they are allowed while in the psych center!
