I can't always pick up 550am here in Rochester. I know alot of people don't like wgr talk show hosts, but believe me, there's some terrible sports talk guys here in Rochester. Having wgr is pretty nice Oh did they get rid of the Rochester Sports Bar? Quote

I live in Jamestown NY and the 104.7 FM is a Christian channel I think and 107.7 FM doesn’t come in. I use the Audacy app when 550 AM doesn’t come in well. I don’t usually notice how bad the quality is here until I get near the South towns traveling north and then it’s really clean. 1 Quote
machine gun kelly Posted February 21 Posted February 21 For me it’s simple. I listen through Audacy when I have time. Usually in the car in and out of hospitals businesses etc. large territory so lots of windshield time. I never cared for OBL that much anyway as they are just yes men for the Bills. The afternoon guys are clowns so it’s really just Jeremy’s show and Sal’s extra point. My wife found me a free website with multiple links for the games. It’s a Chinese website, but works fine. Sometimes one link drops so you move onto another. I can watch any sport. My interest is simply the NFL. She convinced me to drop Prime, YouTube, etc. Down here, it’s primarily Spectrum which gains us free subscriptions to many of the more popular links. Paramount, Peacock, etc. etc. it’s kind of cool as our development negotiated a group spectrum contract so we pay half of what people in single homes do for the consumption. Anyway, it doesn't matter to me and you guys are right. It’s about $. Audacy didn't have the $ to keep paying to be the flagship status. Besides if you have Sirius, you can listen to all games on their radio stations. Quote

Makes no sense to me why they would switch the order of how they announce the FM stations (i.e., doesn’t it make more sense to list 104.7 before 107.7). Again, it also makes no sense why I care. It’s stupid that it bothers me, but it does. It really is true that people will complain about anything. 😝 Ok, now they are just f’n with me. Quote

How about the criss cross of hemorrhoids and asteroids? That drive you nuts too? 🫠 1 Quote

PromoTheRobot Posted March 6 Posted March 6 Breaking News: National radio giant files Chapter 11 bankruptcy - TheStreet https://share.google/MsqnTIWXhMQI7BU6z Cumulus, the owner of Buffalo stations WGRF "97 Rock," 104.1 WHTT, 103.3 The Edge and WBBF 1120/98.9, has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. I resurrected this thread because this group of stations was a likely target for PSE to bid for Sabres and Bills rights. I doubt they are bidding now. Quote
