you mean WMEZ might flip formats to...top-40?
I'll be surprised because they already have WABB. Or what is the situation??

Well, lets see here....
Why doesn't Pamal run 2 country stations out of the same building? Hmmm, No Idea on that one.
And you realize, 99.9 is owned by a DIFFERENT company?
It's a shame they don't program all the radio stations in the area to fit your needs as a radio consumer. You want to dictate programming?
No, don't go get a job at a radio station, you'll get fired and then end up the same place.
Go start a business, any business. But make about 100 million a year doing it. Then take that, invest 4 percent into advertising, and voila - 4 radio stations willing to play you farting all day long.
Alas, you are still going to be unable to get 93 towers built so that you can hear them through your braces.

the "LITE" brand is owned (i think trademarked) by clear channel/PREMIER radio networks.
There are no "LITE" stations in fort walton beach, why not put 94.1 in Mary Esther so it can clearly cover PCOLA and FT WALTON?
..are we not worthy enough??
I don't pay attention to the buildings the stations are in.
Yes, we have 93.3 but it doesn't have the PREMIER radio goddess taking calls and playing soft favourites.

Rob, why not put 93.3 in with 94.1 in Mary Ester and you could average the two and get 187.4 divided by two for an equal
frequewncey of 93.7 with 200kw with some pretty purple lights and maybe fireworks shooting when they do the ID's
and hire really lazy people to run it and have the goddess renamed Mary Ester so you could call the damn thing
DUH-LITE in the loafers/Mary Ester Evergreen 93.7. What is in the water from global warming, down there. Isn't
your 80 footer supposed to be in the ocean with your radio anyway? Code red CC engineer ---
I know you can fix things on towers that don't go all the way to the top, but are you any good at fixing elevators
that don't? WTLOG, I love this bored.
NewGuns comment below combined with "the Goddess" might sound sort of neat on the air and could get some
excited listeners and may make a nice return of the 100mil investment. That's a great addition to spicing up
this board, Guns. Thanks for trying to help Rob improve his radio career, although word has it he's CHARLIES
BOY now.

WMEZ has a fairly new morning guy they hired from out of state named Paul Ellis. He does a good job, IMO - clean sound and entertaining to listen to. John Sykes (PD) in middays and C.J. Whitmore (market vet) in afternoon drive. Delilah handles nights (7 nights/wk) and they have just music with sweepers from mid-6a. Weekends are VT with the weekday air talent and also syndicated programming. They also have 1 or 2 part timers during the weekends.
94.1 and 102.7 are both at reduced power broadcasting from their backup facility while they upgrade to new transmission towers.
There is no way 94.1 will flip to country while owned by Pamal with WXBM in the same building. Ain't gonna happen. I don't foresee them flipping anytime soon; once they get back up to full power they will be able to crush their main competition (WYCL My 107.3) as they have a live and local AM show and are not VTd all day.
I think 94.1 will rebound in the ratings when they get their power back up (much of their audience listens at work and at low power they have a hard time penetrating office buildings) and when people get used to their "new" jock lineup (which is fairly strong ATM). The station needs to be a little more aggressive adding new music and stop relying so much on its out-of-state and out-of-touch consultant. The PD really just follows his orders when it comes to content and programming. Their jingles/liners/sweepers are very old and very stale; they could also use a little updating as well.

Nicely stated. Radio is overpopulated by guys, so it's usually hard for us to fathom the popularity of stations like WMEZ, targeted as it is to women 35-54 (maybe more like 40 to 60, but still). To us it sounds dull; to them it sounds... well, they turn it on when they get to work in the morning and leave it on all day long--and rack up huge TSL & AQH. Huge numbers in W35-54 convert to great numbers in W25-54, and advertisers eat 'em up because those are the people who control the retail economy. Men? Uh, we buy beer (when we're younger) and spend a few dollar bills at Sammy's...
WMEZ has never fully recovered from the storm hit a couple years ago. When they're back at full power--given decent promotion--they'll be fine.

Wow, small world. Paul is from WLQT-FM in Dayton, Ohio (Where I'm From). I even worked in the same building for a while back in 2005. I had a short stint in Pensacola and now I'm working and living in Mobile.

If...just if 94.1 flipped to whatever format, (hopefull not country)..would you think Deliah would hit the airwaves at night on the station? Just a random curiousity.
One station for the princess of PREMIER is enough. Though the 99.9 signal barely covers out here in the styx.
When tropo is up, I can hear 98.5 (though 98.7 is disturbing my view)
In a few months, 99.9 will be all Yule tunes. By that time of the season, we will be all sick of Christmas.
