We did much the same on WJYY when we simulcast on WNHQ (splitting for some
stopsets).  We were quite anal on spot length (a :60 had to be EXACTLY
:60), so cut aways and returns were almost seamless.

She segued directly from a spot into a song????  Haven't heard that in years.

 

We still do a mix of voicetracking & live shifts on 'JYY.  Our PD also
insists that shifts be tracked on the same day as they air (exceptions are
few & far between).
