9. I called WHNE and they are NOT changing formats |
|
I'm not sure what's happening here, the receptionist had zero information.
I'll try to find out more from Air America, maybe the wrong station was called out...

I caught the tail end when Randi announced this on Thursday. I listened later that evening and they had their regular programming on so I thought it was just Randi's show they were carrying.
I have been listening to AAR on Sirius but I could only listen while traveling to and from work. This will make my day!!

13. They are ON in Ann Arbor!!! and it was WHNE switching to WLBY |
|
Edited on Mon Aug-23-04 09:54 AM by gasperc
I don't know if the person I talked to was uninformed or what??
They will be providing an updated web site soon.
The station's number is 734-302-8100, call and let them know you happy and excited about the new programming!!!!!!
I left a message with the program director to find out what it will take to boost their signal, it's only 500watts. WAAM 1600am is 1500watts out of Ann Arbor and I can hear it in Rochester Hills.
Ann Arbor, MI - WLBY AM 1290

14. station manager called me back!!!!! |
|
they've gotten 15 calls this morning all ready. They are doing an engineering study to boost the signal but there are FCC regulations to avoid station crossover. However, he mentioned a Detroit station may be picking up Franken and some other shows soon but couldn't say which.

15. can't pick it up in Dearborn -- using a CCRadio Plus |

I walked it all around the house and yard. I do get some bleeding from a station using the 1310 frequency.

16. I can hear a weak signal here in Dearborn in my car |
|
I drove from Troy to Dearborn and was able to listen in my car. It is a weak signal and I set all the frequencies on my equalizer to 0. If you have a home stereo with an equalizer set all the frequencies to zero. Also, I think radio shack may sell an AM/FM signal boost device.
