I'm surprised WILK did not go down lower.

I'm surprised WILK did not go down lower.

Yeah, especially since I'm pretty sure they went up.

wilks numbers must have been good between noon and 3pm..

 

[Aramondo]

Ha! You're supposed to be offering expert analysis over on the Arbitrend thread, remember? Where too many guests was an issue, and 'only game in town', and you knew all the callers...

 

[cowboy72]

did i say i was an expert? i was giving my opinion. if you dont like it.. bite me..

 

[kewgardens]

And I think the Mighty 590 with the Five...make that four...make that three....make that whatever towers of power is still coming in under a 1 share. Keep up the good work!

 

[Roger]

I think Entercom is paying someone to have 3 stations in the top 5.

I would love to see the dayparts. I can't understand how WILK does so well.

 

[Aramondo]

Maybe matching what you 'know' to the reality is an incongruity.

 

[cowboy72]

I would love to see the dayparts. I can't understand how WILK does so well.

thats why in my opionion, i said they probably showed numbers from noon to 3pm. with rush..the only thing other than that is pam doing the news. and the weekend just doesnt have anything worth listning too.

For references' sake, here (between Hazleton & Pottsville), in un-rated Schuylkill County :

WILK 980 has the best AM signal here from S/WB. Nothing else is close on AM.

The thing on 97.9, whatever they are now, has the best FM signal.

None of the others on AM or FM register on the radio. And we have like four pretty good good radios. If we can't hear a station on the radio, neither will the average auditorium-test moke between this joint and WB/S.

Please forgive the redundancy, but correspondingly, from the opposite direction -- southwest -- WHP Harrisburg 580 is the only listenable AM station, signal-wise. None of the indigenous Harrisburg FMers nor TV stations make a peep here.

Signal strength obviously continues to count when the report cards come out.
