Clearing the Static 2429

We have a lot of changes in the south this week.
First, an innovative country station is gone from Fort Meyers, and later a format swap has taken place in Tampa.
Also, a programming partnership in Christian radio leads us on a side tangent about Family Radio.
We end with major cuts at Chorus in Canada. All that and more this week.

Clearing the Static 2428

As it's the week the Radio Kid takes her annual vacation, Bob and Jake host this show.
After being plagued with technical difficulties and having to do the show by phone, here's what we discussed:
A pair of stations in southern New York has been sold, and Jake has some thoughts.
Later, we return to that part of the country for a change in Scranton, PA. Other changes of note include rhythmic throwbacks coming to Cleveland, a new Country station in Kansas, and the evolution of a station in Dallas from news to news/talk.

Clearing the Static 2427

We've been saying it's a quiet week in radio for the past several weeks because it sure feels like it has been, yet we manage to fill an hour. This week, we have lots of sales, including a few we didn't get to from last week, an not many format changes. What format changes we do have include KMXP in Phoenix making a musical shift, and 107.9 in Champaign-Urbanna going Country. Also, we thought we had lost another student station, this time in the Pacific Northwest, but the station engineer debunked that speculation.

Clearing the Static 2426

It's a relatively quiet week in radio this week, though the flip of a recently acquired station leads to a side tangent about harder Vs. softer Alternative. Later, Seven Mountains is shaking things up in another of its markets, Chorus ends programming on two AM stations, a station in St. Lewis will switch from local to network programming until it is sold, and we do not agree with what just happened in Tulsa. All that and more this week.
