Clearing the Static 2606
It's a busier week than we thought this week, as we just get through everything this hour with an average amount of analysis. Among the topics, a station in upstate New York is sold. Public radio comes to Omaha on a more full-time basis, with a long-time owner completely getting out of the market. Also, we know what JVC is doing in Panama City. All that and more this week.
Clearing the Static 2605
We spend a lot of time on the stories we have this week which is how we fill the time. Among the stories we have:
The FCC has approved the acquisition of Beasley Fort Meyers by Fort Meyers Broadcasting and Sun Broadcasting
WVIN/Bath, NY is sold
104.3 Jamz Chicago is no more, the station has begun simulcasting B96.
A simulcast in North Carolina is being split
A copper theft at a station in Wichita leads to a rant by Bob
All that and more.
Clearing the Static 2604
It's a quiet week on CTS. Changes are afoot in Toronto, with one station moving to dance and two more signing off. The big news state-side is that the public broadcaster in Rhode Island is buying a big signal. That, plus a few other random changes, and an interesting experimental format is on the air in Connecticut.
Clearing the Static 2603
We start this week with station sales, because there are two big ones we
wanted to talk about. First, an upstate New York AM possibly has new
life. Then, what's going to happen with a station outside of Seattle?
When
we move into other news, we talk about a Chicago sports station finally
coming to FM, and a new Spanish-language news/talker in Miami with
plans to expand. All that and more this week.

Sorry this is late. When we do the show on Friday it throws things off.
This
week, we finish up our roundup of post-Christmas format changes. Among
them, a new trend of yacht rock stations seem to be emerging, as we have
talked about three on the program since the holidays. Other than that,
we have a station in Kansas shutting down after a tower collapse, and a
few more items to get to this week.
