Re: [IRCA] WLGC format change



Hi all....In this market ( Greenville-Spartanburg......probably 800,000 in 
the metro area....we have only 1 sports station...WCCP  104.9 in Clemson, 
S.C.  a rim shot in Greenville and almost useless in Spartanburg..we have 
two news/talkers, who simulcast....WORD/WYRD....950/1330 and the rest are SS 
or religion on AM....Ooops, I forgot about little WPCI, an eclectic little 
AM on 1490 which  plays a mix of blues, rock, reggae,soul and jazz with NO 
commercials.......owned by a guy who plays what he wants....no suits to 
answer to....it has a loyal following, but its signal is poor in this very 
rocky part of the state with poor ground conductivity.....between a 0 and a 
2 in most areas  ....this is arguably the most conservative area in the 
south....home of Bob Jones University....where women must wear dresses, and 
married couples cannot hold hands on campus.!!  Bob Jones plays some 
beatiful music on its WMUU AM and FM.....with religion sandwhiched in from 
time to time.....FM here is the usual C&W, SS, Rock, MOR, religion,and a 
rimshot WBT FM which is in glorious mono....allowing for better coverage of 
news talk with their 6KW signal....they simulcast WBT AM  24/7. Also of 
interest is WNCW which is on 88.7 in Spindale,N.C.with a Xmtr. on Mt. 
Mitchell at 6638' ASL  and 17KW ,  and translators in Greenville,S.C. and 
Charlotte and Boone (N.C.)  It is owned by Isothermal Community College and 
plays a nice mix with heavy emphasis on Bluegrass. Didn't mean to get so 
long winded....73, Chris  K4NHL  Taylors, S.C.
