What's going on at 93.7 FM?

Curious because I scanned past it today (9-24) and recognized the voice of Groucho Marx. Turned out they were playing the audio from the movie "Duck Soup".

I've been listening and that movie was followed by the original "Planet of the Apes".

Not complaining. I like listening to movies I know while I'm doing other things...

Just wondering if this might be a new station testing their signal, something they do on the weekends rather than pay for programming (although I don't know how the owners of the films would feel about this) and will we have this from now on?
 
93.7 is a simulcast of Mile High Sports 1510AM. They might have been doing movie talk when you tuned in or something.
 
It's not just "movie talk". I've just listened to "Planet of the Apes" start to finish uninterrupted on here, "Damn you all to hell". Not so much as a legal ID at the top of the hour.

In fact, it just finished and whoever is doing this isn't paying attention because the audio from the DVD's main menu is playing over and over now.

Wish I knew who to call to tell them to put on the next movie. :D

Update: Either their DVD player replays movies automatically if left on the menu too long (once had one like that myself) or whoever is doing this just re-started "Planet of the Apes".

I'm so disappointed. :(
 
Ooops....

Found out that there wasn't something odd about the radio station so much as where I was listening.

I was in the Denver Central Library building as I was hearing those movies yesterday. Evidently they broadcast that audio within the building and it's a strong enough signal (or there's something about the building) that completely kills reception of Mile High Sports even though it's the exact same digital frequency.

I've had "play your CD player/iPod on your radio" gadgets before...but never one that you could use on the same frequency as an existing radio signal. And from the kind of distance that this had to be covering.

Just wanted to tell you what this was about.
