1160 is nearly unlistenable
« on: March 09, 2012, 12:50:17 AM »

Gladly, Dave Ramsey is gone, Dennis Miller is salvation, Savage is lame a day late, Huckabee coming will insure I tune back to 550 at that time, as I listen to Miller religiously 3-5 DAILY.  The spots on the station are insipid, homemade, insulting, and obviously produced by low-rent amateurs doing fake Australian accents. Jeff Piecoro sounds very feminine, and has a weirdly female way of pronouncing "c's" and "k's" in his overplayed, played-out ad spots.  What is wrong with Eric Deter's voice? Can he speak clearly ever? The fake gravelly hardass voice is totally contrived. Clear your throat, take a lozenge, O great oracle.
This station has lost its marbles since the New Year began. They also now proudly boast more in a row ad spots than ANY Clear channel station.  Nobody seems to be listening/calling in to their live programming, and who the hell is the old hillbilly geezer that does the NKU basketball broadcasts?
R. Lee Ermey much? Not listening anymore/never supporting any of their myriad of sponsors. Small time, amateurish and tons of pregnant pauses/dead air on live shows.

Wow. Sounds like you don't like them. If I were you, I'd quit listening.

Thats why radios have on/off switches and tuners. Please, change the dial. I hear 55 calling your name....

There are two controls that come standard on every radio.  One is the power switch and the other is the tuning control.  I suggest you use them.

Sounds like Buck has a axe to grind....an awful lot of spewing to just say he doesn't like the way they sound.

55?  Me thinks 1320. Just reach inside that radio and feel the power.

Is 1320 WCVG still on? I thought it was up for sale again?

Somebody is up for sale on Craigslist, but I'm guessing it's WPFB.

I think by time the potential list of shows has been cherry picked by Clear Channel, 1160 isn't left with much choice.  When I'm in Cincy, I've listened.  I don't think they do too bad.  I've noodled over what stations in their situation can do. They don't have a lot of options sometimes.  I think they are working hard to be the best with what they've got to work with.

The guy bought it to flip it and got caught when the values dropped.
