Since ratings show listening to stations by location, your listening to DX does not help the distant station... since your listening shows up in Grand Rapids, not in the home market to the station. At least he's not BUSTED!! Whatever that means. Are you DX's sock puppet? You both post the same gibberish, with no content, no facts, no suggestions and no information. You just are here to insult others. At least DX had a brief exchange about Niger today. You don't apport anything. LOL! You're just mad because you got caught today with your hand in the cookie jar. Huh? No such thing. All you have done is typed "BUSTED" over and over. That's because you're BUSTED! |

"D Peter Maus" wrote in message ... In Phoenix, Bonneville bought a top 10 CHR, and is going to simulcast KTAR on it. In Salt Lake, they took a lower-performing FM and nuked the programming to simulcast KSL. In both cases, the AM had no coverage or interference issues. In Washington, they moved WTOP, the frequent #1 station to FM, and did niche formatting on the old AM channel which was the best Am signal in DC. Clear Channel took Tallahassee's best AM (1270) and moved news talk to an FM that was lower in billings and put only sports on the AM, WNLS. This sort of thing is starting to happen, with the intervals being less and less between swaps. Something like that here, would be interesting to watch, give that talk on FM, when tried, was not successful. I do not think that the idea that you can do talk for people who are not into talk will ever work. Talk listeners, aside from morning shows or potty talk, appeals to 35+ in any language. So the issue is to make the delivery method and the format relevant to the 35-44 group that should listen to talk, but does not because they grew up after AM was the music medium of choice and do not like it. Many comment that "AM sounds fine to me." We find that in talking to listeners... the older the listener, the more tolerant of AM LoFi they tend to be. This is because the band has no inherent stigma, and these listeners grew up on the sound... as awful as it is. Since stations on AM went to talk formats because they could not do music one, we know music is the last thing that may come back to AM with HD. For a start, talk shows will sound better to the 35-44 demo and help keep stations with a good balance of 35-54 to counter the "old" perception by buyers. Asking under-35's, in their majority, to listen to any kind of talk with content is not going to work. I have done personality heavy stations that played 4 or 5 songs an hour all day, but there was a music base and the talk was not political... it was lifestyle. I think we will see some creative attempts and a bunch of failures before we find out how to make AM become relevant to younger demos. Personally, I think it is going to be fun. And in the long run, it will benefit listeners.... look how the fear of death after the TV freeze forced music radio to develop into a robust alternative. If you're right, and I'm not fully convinced you are about this, what you're suggesting is something of a second, if not third, Golden Age, where innovation is survival, and creativity sells. IF that were to happen, you may be on to something very exciting. But it would take some visionary players. And some investors 'hands off.' |
