The new Wild 98.7 stream beats the Beat's stream easily. At least CBS knows how much output they need to push towards the encoder when they're sending the audio. I had to max out my sound card's WAV mixer settings just to barely hear the "line level"-like sound of "The Beat" on my speakers. Be careful, when CC inserts local ads over the The Beat's local commercials, you're in for a ear-splitting surprise from the level differences. Even the IDs and sweepers that are also going out over the air are louder than the music audio during streaming. Fixa-the-mixah!
