Oooh...WNUA-HD2 is stunting! What do all of you think they'll flip the format to? (;
It's playing some kind of old school soul right now, but it's still identifying itself as MEGA 95.5-2.

All 50 people with HD radios will find out soon.
Why is it that the anti-HD griefers can never just keep their mouths closed if they don't have anything to contribute? Do they just enjoy hearing themselves talk, or do they actually think they're cool?

Not necessarily cool, just correct on all counts. ::)

Smooth Jazz at 2:10 AM...Rick Braun's "Night Walk"

The Decepticon(tm) probably rebooted and thought it was 1/1/00 again and defaulted to the Holiday music stream...

Are they really playing smooth jazz on HD2?
 
They were last night. I heard it, too. Hopefully this is the return of smooth jazz to Chicago. Though I preferred the jazz and blues mix that used to be on 95.5.2 before HD1 changed formats.

Now I'm all about WDCB-HD somewhere out in the 'burbs since SiriusXM wants an outrageous $12.95/month for its internet service.

Huh? What about WLFM 87.7? They have a potential* audience of about 6 million with FM radios within range, while WNUA-HD2 has a potential audience of about 3,500 HD radio users within range (based on sales statistics and reception reports).

Not sure where you've been, but smooth jazz returned to Chicago the day after WNUA dumped it.

*potential audience = listeners who have the equipment and could theoretically listen to the station over the air.

Well, NUA-FM-HD2 has stunted into, well, Smooth, Mexican, Crap?

I'm not exactly sure what the hell they're playing now, but it sounds like what you hear in a Chinese restaurant, but with a regional Mexican twist.

What won't CC try as the ship slowly sinks....

So, yeah, HD is officially dead...

I've been directly underneath WLFM's transmitter, which means I can't hear it at all. Not on my radio, and the signal that reaches my TV is unlistenable. 87.7 might be nice for out in a barn in the 'burbs, but in the heart of the city it's a non-entity.

News flash: there aren't many barns in places like Des Plaines!

Unless you live in one of those condos in the Hancock Tower, I think you need a new radio. It's been my experience that WLFM comes in pretty well around town. The signal breaks up a bit in my suburban area, though is still good enough to listen to in the car. It's FAR stronger than any dink HD-2 signal with it's 5 mile range and unlimited dropouts.

I hear WLFM fine downtown.

If you live downtown and are having trouble hearing WLFM, you might want to try and get a radio with
a DX/LOCAL switch on it. I have an old Sony Walkman that has one and it work's wonders in downtown Chicago.
