Nobody said AM was being dropped. But the only viable format on AM, news
talk, is being moved from AM where it gets no salable audience, to FM, where
it does. Once this happens, AM will have no magnet for listening in any age,
and will die.

Funny, KSL news/talk/sports is not dropping AM, plus as we saw, FM is
over-allocated and tied up in the FCC, for quite some time. AM is not
moving news/talk/sport to FM, just simulcasting, if that is even
approved - too many listeners would be lost.

Edweenie is getting closer to retirement, then he'll be collecting that
'entitlement' too!

I have about 10 years to go, so don't count the days.

Well heck, you'll be 70 then.

Retire, enjoy yourself!

And radio is notorious
for having no pensions... you save and invest or you are screwed.

Well, I have my pension from my previous employment, and I saved and invested.

It could be much worse.

The fat-ass will be dead, at 70.

Yeah, you could have not been a racist bigot.

You just don't get it.

KSL is already on KSL-FM, in a simulcast, in preparation for an eventual
total move of the format to FM when the demos on AM can no longer produce
sales. Just as the same owner ALREADY did in Phoenix and Washington, DC.,
and is preparing to do in Seattle.

WTOP, 50,000 watts in DC ceased its news and talk format on AM and took it
to FM. The AM became specialty programming with no ratings.

KTAR in Phoenix moved its n/t format to FM, and put sports on the old AM
channel.

KIRO, 50 kw in Seattle, is going to move to FM.

Clear Channel in Pittsburgh and New Orleans has beaten KDKA and WWL with new
FM news/talk stations in ratings and billing in 25-54. News/talkers in
Orlando, Akron, Jersey, etc., on FM are winning. Stations owned by Cox and
Clear in Jacksonville, Dayton, Tallahassee and several others are moving or
have moved totally to FM only.

These owners, holding over 1500 stations in the largest markets, know that
AM can not get sales demos any more and they are moving the intellectual
property to a band where such formats work in sales demos.

As I stated, KSL is NOT turning off its AM, just simulcasting on FM.
WTOP will still broadcast on AM. There are hundreds of 50KW AM
stations:

To your shagrin, I will be able to DX many of these for many years
from Maryland, long after you are dead. I don't have to listen to news/
talk/sports, as long as, there is AM to DX. When, Coast-To-Coast-AM ,
the "Truckers Network", WWL, WLW, WHO, WCCO, WSB, WABC, WSM, WGN,
WBBM, WOR, WJR, CHWO, WHAS, WGY, CJBC, WHAS, WLS, CKLW, WTAM, WBT,
KMOX, WHAM and others all disappear off AM, I'll let you know.
