94.5 on the air

LOL, same VO as the former STREETZ 102.9.

Signal is pretty good all the way out to Douglasville.
I thought this was going to be FM translator for 790 The Zone.

 I thought a translator was to be a rebroadcast of a FM single not originating one?

It's rebroadcasting an HD subchannel of Star 94.  So, it's not originating a new station.  The FCC decided this was an acceptable use of translators a few years ago.

Who else is on that tower?

I think I would have gone with a 60's-70's Soul Gold for this station, which is something we
don't have now.........that they could actually create an audience for.

Kent thanks for the 411 on the translator info

Agreed.  Only V, Hot and Wild (to an extent) have been the permanent stations to date for the hip-hop R&B mixture ever since Cox axed Jamz and the Beat awhile back.  Majic/Grown Folks and Kiss had to upgrade their urban AC formats from R&B oldies to 80s-present R&B, which seems way too contemporary sounding.  The problem with Kiss is it could've still been a full fledged urban AC had it not been for Cox fragmenting it to WFOX and WBTS in the 2000s, plus WALR ran all the oldies straight in the ground till it wasn't enjoyable no more.  But we can hold out hope another LP translator can pipe in a 60s-80s R&B oldies station for one soon.

The 102.9 Radio One translator, and some backups for Clear Channel.
