Any format changes on the horizon for charlotte?

[Mike Sheridan]

Charlotte had a Smooth Jazz station, & it didn't work.

Yikes we agree on that!

Why do you think it would again?

Might work better on a station with more power though.

Leave that format to Public Radio.

I keep bugging WFAE to do it on their HD2 stream.  So far they aren't listening to me so I don't listen to them!


Please don't flip WNMX/Mix106 to Talk.

Listeners enjoy their "Timeless Favorites".

Agreed!  Give us old folks something will ya?

WBT has enough talk.

Yep I agree again but a talk station that wasn't so political would be nice but we have that in "The Link"

Putting it on FM isn't going to matter.

Except some people will not turn to AM no matter what.

Adult Hits on 95.7/WXRC?

They shouldn't have dumped Howard, plus the great Classic & Active Rock they played.

Wong, they couldn't sell Howard. Advertisers didn't want to touch his show and the show cost the station too much.

No wonder their ratings are at the bottom.

That's when they're ratings were best.

Now, we have to listen to 99.7 with their ridiculous repetition of Fleetwood Mac/Pink Floyd.

The ratings say that people like that....I don't but I'm different!

Charlotte needs an Active Rocker - how about flipping the 107.9/The Link?

Just get an HD radio and listen to WFAE-HD2 okay?

Talking about Talk Radio - they talk too much!

Talk radio that talks too much?

Every time I tune to them, there's somebody laughing - is it really that funny?

Laugh and the world laughs with you...cry and you cry alone.  It takes a sense of humor!

note my comments above between the comments of AMFM1

I'm enjoying my XM radio I finally have some great Oldies, Smooth Jazz and talk that is worth listening to without all the commercials.  You can have local radio.  I don't mind paying for XM and more people are doing the same.

Yo Mike, any good Polka music on XM Radio?

Wow ya got me there!  I think you still have to go to Buffalo or maybe Cleveland for Polka music.  I hope they still have it there.

A friend of mine got his XM at the same time I did and he listens to nothing but the Spanish channels.  He learned Spanish while teaching English to the Mexican and South American members of his church.  He is totally immersed in the Spanish language.

Could an Adult Hits format be coming to charlotte? What about smooth jazz, hot ac or true oldies? We need a quality new station badly. I'm ready for XM if things don't change.

One thing you can be sure of in radio is change.  Another thing you can be sure of is that you won't find out about it in a forum until after the flip has happened. 

You can speculate about this station or that station making a change, but any meaningful discussions about Charlotte flips are among corporate officers and they don't post their programming flip plans in the R.I. forum.

Yes, you're right Bro Dave.

But it's fun to speculate and there's time to kill 'til goin' home time. Besides, the corporate suits always get it wrong. So maybe some day they'll come here and afigure out how to do it right.
