Re: [IRCA] KKSN 910 Portland, OR "94/7 Too"

["Bill Lipis" <blipis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

kind of crazy using 910 as a music channel.  anyone with old radios will
still get the 910 whistle and would think that music will be the last thing
you would want on that frequency.  that's just me.  why don't some of these
AMs that have no formats left to try, go for Internet feed of something
interesting or TV audio, or XM/Sirius channel?  maybe that's what 910 is
trying to do?   anything would be better than more national networks that
you can hear on ten spots on the dial.

>From Tom Taylor's Radio Info Newsletter...

Entercom puts an all-local band format on Portland, Oregon's 910, dropping
"ESPN Deportes."

The Vancouver, Washington-licensed 910 has led a restless life, format-wise
- it's been sports, talk (in an LMA to Salem) oldies, country, and since May
2009, Spanish-language sports. Now Entercom puts the onetime KKSN calls back
on KTRO and will try music. Not just any music, but a simulcast of the HD-2
channel of alternative KNRK (94.7) that specializes on Northwest musicians.
They call it "94/7 Too." The 910 frequency made many songs into hits during
its top 40 heyday, when it was known as KISN. You can sample the 94/7 Too
online stream without waiting for the July 12 switchover from ESPN Deportes
