I am not a legal expert, how many times do I have to say it?

I rarely troll.

With Howard Griffith having to abruptly leave the 12pm-3pm show because of his commitments to the B1G Network, it just makes me wonder how much thought management put into assembling the programming lineup.

Well wgn has done ok. Larry Wert did ok with his WLUP lineup. They might have known, just guessing that this signal is bad. They are planing on a launch when they negotiate a signal. Maybe they will sink but this isn't their end game.

Was that written by Howard Griffith's PR guy? 1/2 the article is Griffith's resume.

Other stations have been on this signal with less promotion in the past few years and got 5 times the ratings.

The future holds the possibility to be great or terrible, and since it has not yet occurred it remains simultaneously both.

Maybe SHARK wrote it.

Looking at the resume, though, makes me wonder why HG can't seem to stay put in one place very long...

Because he is bad at talking.

The ratings that previous stations got on 87.7 has no relevance to The Game. Their plan is to move The Game to a real frequency that is a lot stronger than the 3000 watts that is 87.7. Then they will unleash the marketing and publicity monster tnat is WGN.

I understand that that's their plan, Scorehead. But perhaps sandbagging it at 87.7 and then unleashing the monster on a new frequency is a bad plan. The Score was on a crappy AM daytimer to start and they hustled like hell to get their name out there. That some radios can't get 87.7 has proven to be a bit of a canard with the way KQX was beating established AM and FM stations on the same bad signal.

The difference though is 820 was trying to develop a format, where as the Game is looking to steal an established market. Ebay sniping.

SH: The ratings suck because it's a bad frequency.

DB: Actually, other stations somehow managed to get 5 times the ratings of The Game on that same frequency with less promotion.

SH: That's irrelevant.

If you hate Laurence, then don't listen - don't comment. When he co-hosts the B&B show, take that day off ... listen to an old podcast of a Bernstein solo show and jerk off all day.

So all The Game has to do is:

Change frequency
Change lineup
Advertise more

Sounds like a great plan so far!!

Those other stations didn't start with the ratings that they ended with.

Q87.7 debuted almost a year ago, what have been the highlights of the first year on-air?
PJ: Well, we signed on May 6 (2012), and hit our November ratings projections by July (That's in 2 months, SH), so that was definitely a high-five moment. The biggest highlight for me, though, was our first Christmas show last December. We had no idea what to expect with our first show, and managed to sell it out in eight days. Then, come show day, the place was packed almost from moment one, and to hear 5,000 people even sing along to the music we played in-between bands…the vibe was amazing, and it really showed evidence of a community we had hoped we had been building.

After all the dust has settled, Q87.7 currently has essentially the same ratings share that Q101 did in the first place (2.1 AQH Persons 6+ in March), but with a weaker signal. What have been the challenges with the 87.7 LP frequency?
PJ: Well, to be fair, we're a low-power TV station, not a low-power FM. So, while many LPFMs have signal issues, ours is more of a "radio issue." Not every radio tunes past 87.9, but if yours does, you can hear us pretty clearly to about 80 miles outside the city. But that radio issue has certainly manifested itself in the form of smaller cume than what Q101 had, which we expected when we launched. We've been fortunate, though, to have made up for it (and then some) in TSL.

Everyone but Brandmeier and Kaplan should be replaced. And I don't even like Father Of The Year, but I'll concede that he serves a purpose and isn't going anywhere.
