Yup, they flipped after Imus at 9 a.m. on Tuesday. WEAV (960
Plattsburgh) remains as "The Zone." I haven't been able to pickup 1320
Randolph yet but I would imagine it would stay with 960. The AM signal
of WEAV is pathetic compared to where it was seven or eight years ago.
Likely zippo for a ground plane and perhaps squirrels in residence in
the transmitter out there across the lake. Besides the abysmal
propagation, the audio chain, processing, would make an old DAP sound
good.
As for DOT-FM, I am sure it will pique interest of folks who grew up
with the former WDOT (1390 nee 1400 Burlington). Some familiar voices
from back then are pulling shifts. Selling it as live and local but we
know how that goes when the road bends. If nothing else, it's amusing
to hear reverb on the mic channel again and not en Espanol! <ducking>
