Since the subject is titled "Here's a crazy thought.....I just realized that NYC was without dance for only 10 minutes, that is if the non stop dance is on 87.7.

Thinking about it even further, they could knock off the 101.5 if they choose to since 87.7 does go into Nassau well. The disadvantage being that some car stereos can't go down to 87.7[/quote
Because of this Party should be dance heavy, why would you want to go out and buy a new radio to get 877 when you could here the same 50 cent song, or fabulous throw it in the bag on crystal clear 97.1 or 105.1? there has to be an incentive for people to want to tune in to this station. For me pulse was it, all the great dance songs that you couldn't hear anywhere else, INCLUDING PARTY 105. I used to tune in on my MP3 player to hear Pulse. Now i have no reason to tune into 877, cause i'll just listen to 105.3 or my pulse mix cd. That's just me, don't get me wrong I think party 105 is great for Long island cause the only hip-hop we get is 93.7, but now looking at NY there are so many choices for that on the higher part of the dial that if urban is what they play mostly, who's going out of their way to hear that on a weak signal? I can only hope pulse has been an inspiration for party to tweak, and i hope this tweak expands to the 105.3 signal. |

Hardrocker.
I FULLY trust Vic Latino and am confident that he knows what he is doing. And if he feels that the Party 105 format as it is now, has to be tweaked in order to become more danceable to the followers of Pulse 87, he will do it!
I have 100 percent backing on him

Actually, I was trying to find the thread here but I had mentioned this just after the Star and Buc Wild show went off the air. As I first got on Facebook, I was talking with Vic about the days he was at 'KTU. To which I thought to myself, since Pulse 87 had no morning show, why don't they just do a local syndication of Vic's "Vic Latino's Neighborhood" morning show onto Pulse! It wouldn't have cost Pulse much, except having Party tap into their line from 6A - 10A and they could have split the ad percentages somehow. Kinda fully how everything comes to full circle here!  |

What would be crazier but so great is... Joel and Emmis get together again and bring dance to Pulse 101.9 FM  One can only wish... Actually, that is not crazy! But, then that would leave NYC without an Alternative station... |

If we want to go back even further than that, there were calls for Jarad Broadcasting to put Party on 92.7, replacing the old WLIR, based on the fact that 92.7's numbers were at their highest in its latter years when the station was more dance-friendly in its music. Of course, that did not happen, and our friends at Univision paid $62 million for a station that isn't breaking a 0.6-0.7 but which is somehow far more "successful" than a station with a 1.0 and a higher cume  |
