Valley 98.9

[Bob Nelson]

An automated jukebox they feel can make money, as opposed to running talk,
ethnic, religion, syndicated sports, etc. Serving the community, eh? Minus
DJs, etc. (Anyone remember when WCGY 93.7 was similarly programmed with pop
as The Rock Garden? Pre recorded mentions of the songs but pretty much
automated.

Fybush notes today in North East Radio Watch that 1110 now has the WMVX
calls (MV as in Merrimack Valley, I wonder?) while 1570 becomes WCCM.

So yes, automated jukebox, as they may feel that's where the money is (with
the FM tail wagging the AM dog).It's Valley 98.9 not Valley 1110. That's
where the money is, in oldies.
WKRP first episode:
Les: But there are already a lot of rock and roll stations in Cincinatti!

Andy: Well, why do you think that is, Les?

Les: Well, I think it's a plot of some sort.

Andy: No, Les. Rock and roll is where the money is.
