Dr. Chuck said:Let the speculation begin! Is there a WABC AM/FM simulcast in the future?
chrocket87 said:With Cumulus, the most likely candidates are, in order: WABC-FM (no need for explanation), Country (Cumulus runs a lot of Country stations and it would be a nice pairing with PLJ), Alternative (Cumulus runs a few of these, as well, expect a more Active direction if they pursue this option). Just my .02.

If it's country, I'd expect a morning show. Any sort of rock will likely be a syndicated show or all music mornings. That's what I've found from Cumulus stations of the two formats.robbie roundhouse said:I think country and/or active rock make the most sense. Do we expect a major morning show or will it be a "more music" type of format?
Rollo-Smokes said:Now, for the fallout...losing Family Radio programming on FM is no huge loss, but what if they plan to use the cash and look for an AM station to replace WFME?
