How would you improve WLS FM?
I would hire Chris Shebel away from Cheap Channel Raleigh and put a DANCE/CHR, i.e. Energy 92.7&5 back ON THE AIR!

How would you improve WLS FM? Simulcast AM 890 or swap the formats.

Add more local talent to replace Shannon. Why isn't Fred Winston there? Oh, because they're cheap!

x2! Also, as a specialty show, I'd love to see AT40, The Seventies show up sometime over the weekend on WLS-FM. That would be a perfect fit. Better than the same ol' TOC programming.

Antique Radio Repair/Restoration- Send a PM

I'd love to bend Scott Shannon's ear for an hour about succeeding in Chicago. (Hint: lIsten to Dick)
Whoever might be in contact with Scott should please contact me in PM in total confidence. We could easily assemble a few others who regularly post here to help "tune" WLS back into being WLS .
I don't want Scott to fail, and I'm pretty sure no one else does, either, ...just... can we somehow help WLS remember what it really sounds like?

OK, I've changed my mind although I do think a dance format on a big signal would work and I like Chris Shebel. What I am reading more and more leads me to be more inclined to "recreate" the BIG 89 on FM!

I'm with you all the way. Add Larry Lujack on weekends. He would love to do a weekend show and he said a year or so ago it's not about the money.
