We DON'T need anymore FM Talk/Sports and DEFINITELY not a country. CHR? Urban? Rhythmic? Please!
seems like the rumors are that wilks is buying them, if that's the case, I'd expect a country, since I don't know how they could expect to leave that translator on 102.3, with 102.5 in the area....
if they bought 102.5, and changed the translator to an on channel booster, they might have a pretty good signal...to wit, i would expect them to move the programming from 95 to 102.5..
but that's just a guess.
pretty much the same if it goes to saga, I could see them moving the jazz station again, but really, what's the point of that...
you're right, we don't need any more of what we already have....a decent 24 hour LOCAL FM news talk, maybe, but I doubt that anyone will spend that kind of change to make that happen, although there is no love lost between carriage land and fifth street...you know that "payback is a bi***" phrase....it would be a strong gotcha for CC. Ditto on a decent CHR!
IF the current owners keep it, i'd expect AC...but I don't expect that...
Would wilks do an urban flavor...they might, it wouldn't be a bad move...and they are based in atlanta, so it might not be an impossible sale...it would compliment what they are doing, by adding a demographic they can't reach...which could translate into a revenue source they don't have... It could probably put some flavor of urban on 107.1, between the R1 stations, which could only help...but I would expect them to put country on their high power sticks
