The AMs are dying of old age


I keep seeing you write this, and then I notice there are three new
AMs being built in my mid-50s market city, one of them 50kw days/10kw
nights.


Like the 50 kw in Boise that came on a few years ago, and is now dark.

Building a station is no guarantee it will have listeners, and the age of AM
listeners is such that there is no guarantee they will have advertisers.

Radio is dying a financial death... fewer listeners, and mostly only old.
