Great idea! Get the production guys from ESPN and FOX Radio Sports send in the list of their BUMPER music and rotate the full versions of those.. It would be more appealing... 
Both 93.9 FM and AM 1450 have been silent carriers since about 5:50 pm Friday, July 24. I noted a rough automation switch out of the Reds network on 1450 to the ESPN feed, a switch back to the Reds network past the network "goodnight" signoff into a (supposedly) closed circuit game promo feed, then silence. What gives? Did they lose their STLs?
Hey Bob, Did I use to take care of some RDS paging equipment for you over WQKC in Seymour?wendradio said:
AM 1450 is on right now (I just checked it out) and announced they are the "exclusive home for the NFL" which probably means ESPN's Monday Night game of the week. You never know about this station. If they have all three hamsters there in the wheel it is okay but after sundown when two of the hamsters go home the signal fades to crap and sometimes they just lose the Reds network feed altogether. I have to tune in 700 WLW sometimes to make sure it wasn't on the Reds end (it almost never is). This is what you get with automated syndicated stations though. I use XM when the Reds are home but have to rely on terrestrial radio when they are on the road.

Well it sounds like the same idiots running FM Talk because double audio has been playing on 93.9 for a few hours now.
Nah, maybe they are utilizing their stereo programming. They're giving you the choice of shows in an attempt to double their 0 share of the audience. Have you tried turning your balance knob and listening to the left channel to one program and vice versa? One could only wish this station was operated so haphazardly.WHOKILLEDRADIO said:
Which station beat WAKY Greg?
Haven't checked the numbers, but yes I do like WAKY since its a local, non-corporate station with good music and good local hosts. Is there a problem with that? Should be be backing the corporate IPOD stations instead? How many local people like you and I make a living with them?greg.hahn said:
Just checking the ratings on here. WAKY had a 2.6 and a 2.0 rating in the last 2 periods listed. WQKC-FM, which I'm guessing are their calls has nothing listed.greg.hahn said:
My response was to the hilarity of 2 programs playing at the same time. Perhaps I struck a nerve with someone involved with a poorly operated station? It's a sign of a healthy person when you can laugh at yourself. {Try it "Haha Yep, we screwed up!" Draw a line in the sign and decide its NEVER gonna happen again. We, as the potential listening public, don't want to listen to this garbage. It seldom happens at other stations, so why this one?? Even a disclaimer after the fact apologizing would be nice.}
93.9 is WLCL. Their Winter '09 rating was 1.4 after having 0.6 as WQKC in the Fall '08 ratings. Somebody must like Classic Hits instead of Sports!
The only place I knew offhand to find ratings was at the top of the page, under Ratings, then see all Markets. I would think this would be the logical place to look for the most up to date ratings available, but I could be wrong. I'm not sure what the lag time is for compiling these reports.greg.hahn said:
WAKY does something I prefer and thats broadcasting with their live djs. Many, and especially Johnny Randolph, will announce what will be played and give a teaser on a song with little know facts. For example, did you know when Johnny Cash played "A Boy named Sue" it was done at Folsom Prison, and they had no written music? You don't get information like that from these IPOD like automated stations.

Arbitron hasn't published them online for Louisville since the fall book, and the information you have at the top of Radio-Info.com is really incomplete.
But I just checked. WAKY won 12+ because of their older demographics, but WLCL beat them 25-54, which is the key money demo.
That's in the winter book, which becomes irrelevant on Monday when the Spring '09 book comes out.
Where is the studio/office at? The building on Magnolia Ave?
