Clearing the Static 2436

We spend a lot of time on the east coast this week. Among the changes we discuss are the following:
We now know what's on 98.7 in New York. Also, could a flip of a long running rock station to a news simulcast have been prompted by the demise of WCBS? Later, it's off to Florida where a new rock station has launched, and later Portland's Bella has a little sister in Seattle.

Clearing the Static 2435

We actually have time to give WCBS a fair sendoff on this week's show, as we have some remaining time. Before that though, Salem continues to sell stations, one of which will result in a new sports, talk, and rock format. Also, a couple changes are taking place in Canada, as Chorus is shutting down an AM, and a new country station is coming to Toronto. That, plus some last minute changes in Austin, and much more on this week's program.

The Radio Kid is flying solo this week, and as she does, there's lots to talk about. We touch on some news from last week -- including the shutdown of CHML in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, but also the hope that may lie in a pair of stations there which are being relaunched by a new owner. Turing to this week's news: Both "Rock 92.9"'s in Boston, MA, and Raleigh, NC, are moving off their 92.9 spots on their respective dials. Cromwell is adding a third Sports brand in Nahsville, TN. And, we've got station sales, station sales, and even more station sales! It's all here on this week's edition of Clearing The Static -- the radio show that talks about radio!

After catching up on what we didn't get to last week, the majority of this week's show is focused on the shakeup in New York, where Good Karma is leasing what is now Audacy News 880 WCBS. That starts August 26. What will become of 98.7 at the end of the month? That and more is discussed.
