Was just scanning the dial along the Jersey Coastline and came across the very strong WLIE. It seems from what I was able to gather that they are "The Tri-State's New Home for South Asian Music & Programming." I know this station has gone through several changes over the years from music to talk to business news and now to what appears to be "ethnic programming." My question is: Is this a recent change/shift in programming? Also is there a market for "South Asian Programming" in the immediate LI area where the station is located? I know central Jersey has a rather large South Asian population but it seems there is a sharp null due west that may inhibit the signal from making it in that direction. Otherwise the Salt Water Prop does wonders along the Jersey Shore Coast!!
Personally even though I am not even remotely a fit in their "demo" I do give them credit if they continue to offer Live/Local programming. It will be of great interest to someone in the listening audience. It doesn't appear to be a network of stations as it is with WNYH which is a step ahead.
Thoughts/Comments??
