Just an FYI: WMVP is the calls at 1000AM in Chi-town....

Since 1-on-1 comes out of Chi-town (don't know what station carries it
there), is there a possibility that the mix-up (as far as the ChiSox vs 1on1
broadcast) was at the Chicago end?

Anyone aware of WNRB/1510 having the same mix-up? (of course, the go local
7-9PM and that may have been the time of the mix-up?)

Just some food for thought, not making any excuses for 'KBR's lame
performance. Goodness knows they screwed up the Boston Celtics feed bad
enough! (though it is better than the "Love1250" or dead air "formats" of
the past few years!)
