What station could pick up O&A? Would any?

If O&A were to get a new philly station which one would it be I am not sure if their are any good suiters

From likely to least likley
1. 104.5 WRFF (would clear channel want them?)
2. 95.7 WBEN
3. 950 WPEN (Could mesth with sports format but do they want to be on AM)
4. 102.9 WMGK
5. 93.3 WMMR
6. Q102 (see WRFF)
7. 1210 WPHT
8. 92.5 WXTU
9. Wired 96.5
10. 610 WIP
11. 97.5 WJZZ
12. 94.5 WPST
13. 106.1 WISX
Hell would have to freeze over for any of the stations below this

Or, for any of the stations above this...

P.S. -- 94.5 WPST is not a Philly station...

None of the above.

There was one place for O&A to work, and it didn't.

Nothing to see here.

Move along.

These are not the droids you were looking for.
 
I think 95.7, 102.9, 97.5, and 950 are out. I doubt Greater Media will let them compete directly with The Zoo on 93.3.

I doubt you'd see them on any CBS stations (98.1, 1210, 610) although they would fit in well with 1210 and 610.

96.5 is possible, but I doubt it, Beasley seems to be behind Chio in the AM.

104.5 is possible, if CC is interested to sign them for their next contract, this could be a big first step in that direction.

However, I still think the likeliest scenario is that they end up on AM860. There are no ownership issues to get in the way (I don't think they ever p***ed off Beasley). They don't put a lot of stock in mornings currently. The signal & frequency isn't the greatest, but I don't think they have a lot of options at this point.

Unless Imus returns to 860...but that's only of course if the rumor about him going to WABC is true.
 
O&A on 860? A station that doesn't sign-on until 7:30 during the winter book? Why bother.
 
I do not think that O&A would work on 1210 or 610. One is a political talk station, and the other is a sports talk station. Shock jocks do not fit in with either target audience there and I really doubt CBS is going to mess with what they have just for these two to get back on the air in this market.

I don't know about the politics involved, but 104.5 seems like the best match for them here. That having been said, I think they had their best chance at WYSP and I don't see them getting a second one.
 
13. 106.1 WISX


cc could put them on 106.1 and use it as thier new FM talk station i mean whos listening to my 106.1 anyway ???

Trenton, Philadelphia...Timbuktu, it doesn't matter. Opie & Anthony aren't going to WPST no matter what city you want to say it's in.
 
I will put myself out there.....Debella's contract is coming up and greater media has never been afraid to compete with their own product.....O&A could provide better results than the 400K a year it costs for the Debella staff....after all, the zoo guy isnt even keeping up with Debbie C///just a thought.
