Sophi Getting some Energy

[philosofy]

Hm, that's strange. This is what I get: http://imgur.com/EXh92

I also have opendns setup on my network so maybe that has something to do with it as well.

You know what would make for an interesting format is a techno/disco station it would be fascinating

We can only hope it's a rhythmic/dance outlet, but I have heard of "Energy" stations that end up being a standard CHR, nothing too exciting. Hopefully we're wrong in this case.

Wow, with jargon like this, it's gonna be great!

"...combine the power of its on-air position with myriad online and digital applications creating a full 360-degree audio and visual experience for teens and Adults 18-34."  

Bet whomever wrote that had a hard time keeping a straight face - well let's hope so anyway, because if they actually believe that kind of BS, then this will have as short a lifespan has all the other 103 dot 7 formats of the last umpteen years.

That's a lot of CHR stations. We got Channel 933, Q96, Z-90,and now Energy 1037? The next question. Is "Energy"
a mainstream CHR like Channel and Q-96? or is it Rhythmic-leaning like Z-90?

An earlier post intimates that there'll be "10,000 in a row" - similar to other CBS Radio CHR launches such as AMP in L.A. and 92.3 Now in NYC.

Besides the station website radio.com link, listen live via:

It will be Energy 103.7. 10,000 in a row like 97.1 AMP

In addition to the current listen live links a couple of posts above (which will eventually expire for KSCF),
these are the new links for the new Energy 103.7 KEGY which are also working now:

It's nice of CBS to give this station launch the full treatment, considering they are finally about to sell the cluster. This will not be the end of the Sophie/Energy news. Probably why they aren't using the Amp branding.
