WKFS HD2 Debuts on 100.7

[NoWayNoCC]

As long as they don't sound like that awful ERNIE 94.1.

A complete waste of a translator.  One in that location, you could and should put a niche format on there, something like a AAA or Alternative.

Wouldn't alternative hurt the already ailing WEBN? CC needs to find a way to keep people listening to EBN, and adding an alt-rocker, which will likely siphon off younger listeners, won't do that. Mind you, I've wanted a real alternative back in Cincy ever since the sound flipped.

The audio quality is awful. They must be feeding the translator directly from a HD Radio hooked into the line in jack on the transmitter.

I'm in Florence and the signal and audio quality is good, actually louder than Q102, its a directional signal aimed at Kentucky and the city of Cincinnati only to protect WEEC in Springfield Ohio.

We may soon find out, Clear Channel plans to put WEBN's  HD2 Channel on translator 106.3 soon, it carries Iheart radio's "Slippery when we wet" format.

I think the River format is a little hotter than I would wan, itt could hurt Kiss a little a too, may defeat the purpose of pushing Kiss ahead of Q102. Its about 60/40 Current/Recurrent intensive with a lot of shared songs on Kiss's playlist!

If you compare 100.7's audio with Kiss 107.1 there is a big difference. At least to my ears.

After listening to the audio in various place on various units I would say you are correct Microbob! Signal is strong though 13 miles from downtown, can get it on every unit in my house.

Today's Mix is definitely more Adult CHR and is a little hot to be a KISS sister station. They should've ran The Beat and went against The Wiz.

Q102 has nothing to worry about. CC will not promote this station much at all, which they will need to in order to let listeners know it even exists. They didn't even take the time to create a website for the station using one of their generic looking templates.

I agree! With that dial position too! Sandwiched between Mojo and the Wiz!

The Classic Hip Hop/rap format would have made sense also with 100.3 doing Jammin Oldies.
