Who's flipping next?

I assume the majority of families live in the suburbs so putting a true AC station (i.e., Sunny 99.1 in Houston) up north could make sense for 105.3 or 105.7/. Probably an AC station right in the city wouldn't attract much due to demographics. And now that Fish is gone, someone is going to have to fill that Christmas music-void. And don't call the station, "Peach" - sounds too cheesy lol.

105.3 is a southern, not northern, signal. 105.7 is a very limited signal that covers basically the northern part of the market. It would not be able to compete for the ratings needed to attract buys with a mass appeal format. What 105.7 is doing now is the best use of that signal. It puts a strong signal into the heavily Hispanic areas of the market.
 
Yes, it was, before it was Z105.7. It was Regional Mexican at the time. But 105.3 is a southern signal, more appropriate for an Urban station.
If iHeart still owned WLVG 105.1 out of Helen (now licensed to Clermont), it would work great for covering most of the market with two signals, especially with 105.1's upgrades that took it from a Class A to a Class C3.

Clear Channel sold it off a while back, and it's now owned by EMF.
