When the station started covering NASCAR with NASCAR Bubba, I knew the end was near. I didn't realize on my drive home it had changed, as I surf the stations constantly, but I threw up a red flag when "Flip Fantasia" played by US3, figured they bit the dust. That's too bad, radio around here continues to suck. | ||

Yup, just got Sirius. Although I have some issues with the signal strength due to broadcasting through my FM and not directly wired as well as getting the "cheap" model. Throughly impressed with the stations though. | ||

Some people are speculating that 106.7 will begin simulcasting WDFN (which is sports radio for those of you who don't know), that would be interesting. | ||

106.7 needs help.... aparently 106.7needshelp.com is some sort of voting system to determin the new format? from the site: "We appreciate your help and interest in building this new radio station. This radio station is ALL ABOUT YOU, the listener, so we need YOU to tell us how it should be!" how about.... anything but clearchannel! college and highschool radio forever. 88.1 www.881theescape.com 89.3 www.whfr.fm 89.5 wovi 90.9 was on the list but since they removed magic mike and the morning roll call/morning work out mix, they get an F. 91.5 www.cjam.ca 106.7 was an oldies/70s/80s/rock top 40 station for those who never got the radio up that far.

My sister is going to be upset about this when she returns from her vacation in Florida! 106.7 was the only radio station she listened to. I never liked it much-- they played the stuff from the 70s and 80s that I wasn't really into the first time around. (My sister and I fought about music a lot when we were kids.) I'd like to see an AAA format for the new station. We haven't had a full-time AAA station since The River changed to mainstream adult contemporary. | ||

From today's Freep article: "They put on '60s-'70s broadcast legend Bill Bonds starting at noon Wednesday to periodically announce the public would have a chance to pick all the music they'd want to hear on a new 106.7." Wow. They should just have an all Bill Bonds station. He could play some tunes, do some "talk" radio, voice over his own commercials and challenge local political officials to boxing matches. Talk about shock radio.  | ||

My guess is that the new format will probably premiere at around 5 p.m. today. That gives them excuse to say, "There's nobody here who can comment until Monday morning" if they get any media calls, and it also gives them the weekend to fine-tune the format. | ||
