Scott, since I have your attention - can 97.1 *legally* give the TOH LID
as "97.1 W-L-H-K Shoobydoo - Indianapolis?" I checked my maps and I
don't see a Shoobydoo. They even say something (even silliar than that)
after the ID, like "I like Hank" or "all my ex's live in Shelbyville."
I realize that they are trying to be funny - but what scares me is that
they must be thinking that the FCC is too busy to go after something
trivial, like purposefully butchering a town name. It was funny the
first time or too but years later, not so much. ;)
I think that's the same ID we have up on tophour.com from both 2005 and
2006. To my ear, the announcer (the same guy who played J. Peterman on
"Seinfeld") *is* saying "Shelbyville* - just in a sort of slurred way. I
think that would pass FCC muster, barely.
