103.7 Chuck FM...........

I'm in the Greenville area and listen to 97.7 a whole lot. One of the best variety hits stations I've ever heard. It's more of a classic hits station than anything (they play pop, disco, rock classic hits)...lots of 70s and 80s with some 60s and 90s also. Not as "off the wall" as a lot of the variety hits stations, quite safe. I rarely hear a bad song and have never heard anything post-2000. It's a very well programmed variety hits station for a market lacking a classic hits station.

Chuck-FM is better than Cox's "River" or "Eagle" "classic hits" stations, I can say that much. It seems like it's been pretty popular here, I figured if it did well it might spread to other markets.
 
103.7 is still the NEW Bulldog 103.7 as of this AM. Maybe they can put something together now that Cumulus has announced that AGH will be flipping on the 29th.

You'd think they would drop the NEW if they knew they were going to flip.

No, they are using the Cox "NEW" like "The NEW 97.1 The River", not the Cox "NOW" like "AM 750 and NOW 95.5 FM".

Cox internal rules require any station to bill themselves as "NEW" or "NOW" for at least 5 years.

I am loving it already. I have always said that this is what WZGC should go to. Anyway, heard the knock on the door and thought I was hearing a WCBS-flashback.
 
Am hearing "Always SOmething There to Remind Me" and some 90s song that B plays.
 
If only AGH had been like this. "She's Heart and Soul......" Oh Yeah!
 
Maybe if some of you are really good boys and girls, COX will bring something similar to that in the Atlanta market. Which cox station could use a face lift? I don't think it would be the river. I'm thinking B. Not sure if COX would have the same formats so close to each other BUT cumulus did when 100.5 was Quality Rock. 105.5 out of Macon was also Quality Rock.

Not like you can get 103.7 in Atlanta anyway.
 
Apparently, as far as I have heard, it is a "launching pad" station, so to speak: See how the WE PLAY EVERYTHING format works out and use it in other markets. This is the full "official signal" or non-translator "Chuck" station.
 
When Cox launched Chuck-FM in Greenville, I was wondering if it was a guinea pig, so to speak (it's got an awesome signal for a translator, BTW, covers all of the market pretty much) - they're obviously pleased with it, seeing that it's expanding. The "original" Chuck-FM to use this logo, playlist, etc was WAVF in Charleston, SC, 101.7 Chuck FM.

If Cox has something that works, they like to spread it around. Think of The Eagle ("River" in ATL's case), The Point, etc.
 
Is it a satellite format, like "Jack FM", since other stations are "Chuck FM" in Green Bay and Greenville?

Never mind that, I love it.

I liked Cox's old 80s "Point" format...I guess an all-80s format has run its course.

I agree! They had some of the best all-80s stations there ever were.

Chuck isn't satellite. *Most* Jack-FM stations in larger markets aren't, either (there's a separate Jack satellite format for smaller markets). It's more of a licensed brand/logo, I think.
 
Nice that that format will be heard in Athens. Charleston's Chuck is a very eclectic station. They have not had a personality on the station since it started, but it almost always gets between a 4 and a 6 share in the local ratings. You can hear almost anything from the 70s (even some late 60s) to now on there except for country.
