Soooooooo....it's ok for 105.9 to have crappy ratings and for 105.9 to have a bad signal, but it's a disaster for Pulse 87 to have low ratings and not say it's the signal or even the dial position. You know, 105.9's signal covers twice as much the area compared to Pulse and it's ok to say that La Kalle had a bad signal therefore caused their ratings to slide, but Pulse 87 is a disaster,
Pulse is a general market station, while WCAA was a Spanish language station, limited to those people in the signal area who are Spanish dominant. that's enough differences to call the "apples and oranges" card and say that this is an irrelevant comparison.
and they are doing bad, but when we say they have a limited signal, their position on the dial is at the bottom, and the station was "word of mouth", oh no, thats not why Pulse is doing bad.
Pulse did badly like every other dance station in the US. A period, generally less than a year, of interesting performance, and then a decline that terminates in extinction. The fact that a good signal, like Party in Miami, exhibited this pattern should show that signal is irrelevant... the format is the issue.
So you expect me to believe that La Kalle was suffering when they had a better coverage area than Pulse?
The Kalle 64 dbu had far fewer Spanish dominant Hispanics in it than the 64 dbu of Pulse has English speakers or bilinguals... yet Kalle beat Pulse consistently.
I think what made La Kalle better was to keep it 100% Raggaeton and/or if you wanted Luis Jiminez, at least try to have El Vacilon on La Kalle.
Huh? Reggaetón moved on, and is no longer a format anywhere on the US mainland... and "Vacilón" is a trademark of WSKQ, even though Luis brought the name... the show is Luis, not the name of the show. Luis is on X 96.3.
