Who's next to flip formats?

[richstrunck]

Just curious to see what folks think about who's next to flip format's? Is WYGY 97.3 The Wolf vulnerable, since they barely protect B105 with a 1.4 or is 96 Rock set to be the next top 40 for Cumulus, thoughts please?

I predict WLHS-FM.

Who would flip to Sports Talk on FM with a local daytime lineup? Cleveland is getting an FM sports station why not in Cincinnati?

We have too many classic hits stations. I can't see Rewind and Journey both surviving, but I also don't see any changes soon.

Can WNKU survive? Seems like the format is way too niche to work on those signals. The enemy of good is better. The format worked on a university station, but they now have bills to pay. If they became more like WTTS, xrt, or cd101@102, it might work. I'm sure it would also turn off their core audience. I predict a change at 105.9.

I believe in Dayton it will be Cox's 95.3FM "The Eagle"...I bet the go with an AC format to fill in where CC's 94.5 Lite FM can't be picked up. Cox seems to be doing this all over the country and it works. Better signal then 94.5FM. IMO

The WNKU scenario seems possible, Northern Kentucky University would make some dough by doing what The University of Florida does with WRUF in Gainesville, wont happen for a while. If I were at Cumulus I would Id look at moving The Fox to 96.5 and put top 40 or Country on 92.5 .The Wolf has only a 1.4 and is also vulnerable. Could see them maybe bringing back the sound or a rock or Urban AC format!
