Well here it is Phase I for Winter 06 and it looks like some shockers are here:
1. WQIK (Up By a bunch.....read my opinoion below)
2. WOKV (not too bad holding steady for their peformance as a N/T)
3. WJBT (def not bad...up by a tad)
4. WSOL (holding steady basically)
5. WAPE (seems to have sliped a bit...but still remains in the top 5)
6. WEJZ (slipping here.....some work maybe needed)
7. WJGL (never mind they are sitting worse then they where they were at a year ago right after COOL was dumped....and not in the top 5)
8. WFYV (still seeing a slide here..the lost of L&T are hurting them)
9. WPLA (that frequency switch helped them in this Phase and with L&T being back it is only going to get better)
10t. WFKS (seems to hold steady but having a 12,000 watt tower is not going to help them beat WAPE)
10t. WMXQ (holding steady now...it seeems that 80's may last longer in Jax now....other parts of the country are not so lucky)
12t. WGNE (This was a shining spot in the book as i saw it. WGNE gets a pat on the back for improving...now two away from being a top 10 station...amazing go Gator)
12t. WZAZ (tied with Gator and is holding steady)
14. WBGB (what is going on here???)
15. WKQL (hum time for a PD change........needed now!!!)
16t. WFXJ (seems to hold steady from book to book)
16t. WROO (them at 93.3 now.....means bad book and it is happening again.....no improvement what so ever...)
18. WJSJ/WSJF (this is a shock with a slide down....I thought Jazz did well here??)
19. WCGL (about normal, but up a tad)
20. WJGR (about normal)
21. WZNZ (about normal)
22. WHJX (it seems they go up and down like a roller coaster)
23. WSOS (never mind about this one)
What I see here is something totally askew with this Phase I: 1) WQIK could not have gone up by that much not with the way WGNE showed improvement over this Phase. As for WROO the killing time is needed now...improvement on a tower that sucks south of the city....come on something like Classic Rock would do you better now or even Jack FM like station...ditch the Rooster and just let WQIK and WGNE have there battle starting now.
WJGL is not even close to where they were a year ago and that is a shame on them....they should have kept the oldies...but think of this one with 100.7 would still be Classic Rock right if Cox had not dumped the oldies....they could have done like what Q105 in Tampa has done by evolving from oldies to classic hits but manages to maintain all the stuff from Motown to some early rock hits of the 80's...and their numbers show that listners are still there.
Planet is improving with more power now......it is amazing what one simple switch can do....I look forward to seeing this station compete for a Top 5 spot in the future.
Well later
