Oldies 93 is making $$$. When that drops, the station will go away. To help prevent that they need to inject some life into the station instead of making it an AC also-ran.

Re: Oldies 93

At least your market still has a Good Times Oldies Station. I listen to them when traveling north of Charlotte. I remember them from the old Z93 days...
Charlotte's Oldies station at 96.1 left us behind. So embrace Oldies 93 while you can. It is the only big time Oldies FM in the region. I hope they will keep their ratings up.
