Will 99x Move to FULL SIGNAL 100.5?
- Thread starter ccinsider
- Start date
Project may STILL be in town... the signal will not be comparable to 96.1's however. Rock 100.5 was launched in reaction to 96 Rock's merger with the Buzz, so 100.5 may go Alternative. However, 99x on 100.5 makes little sense.
They'd be stupid not to. No Dave and no Project (unless it moves to 105.3, which I expect) means 99x can have the 1990s-present rock all to itself.
Why do you say that? I haven't heard one complaint about the name 99x on 97.9 or 98.9. If the listeners had their music on a decent signal, I doubt anyone outside of radio geeks would care all that much. Granted, I wouldn't mind a name change like X100.5, but the 99x name holds enough water that listeners probably won't care if it's 99x at 100.5.BRENT said:

Here is a shocking thought...
Kill the 99X brand. It seems to me that by keeping the brand, but moving it around various signals, isn't going to help it establish. When I first heard 99X in the 90's, it was cutting edge and stood for something. Here we are now, 20 years later the brand is barely alive on a frequency that has no resemblance to the actual brand. Just a thought...

Project's dead. Somebody on another thread mentioned a meeting at Cumulus. August 30th, 2012 will be among the most historic days in modern (post-telecom) Atlanta Radio.

All News WAS historic, but it only affected one station immediately. We could see up to 5 signals change overnight!
If project is no more, I wounder if 100.5 will become active rock? Active/alternative hybrid similar to 105.7 the point in Sr. Louis. Wide playlist playing modern rock (active & alternative).

Don't forget 96.7!
After Project made the switch to Power 96, 99X's Facebook page had this comment:
Project 961 plays some lame stuff occasionally, but this is ridiculous....

Pretty hilarious!

This on Rock 100.5's facebook page around 11:30 this morning:
Rock 100.5 | Atlanta's Rock Station
Good things come to those who wait...we ARE Atlanta's Rock Station...about to kick things up a notch. Spread the word.

100.5 will go to active rock. 99X will stay where it is.
