They might care, I cant speak for them.. but from a purely business decision, it might make better sense to upgrade the KPIG-AM signal and reach 1 million plus new listeners at night
I'msure they put some thought into this and figured while they might lose some business/listenership from downgrading KGA, the amount they gain from upgrading KPIG-AM would be worth it. Let's hope they don't change the historic call letters, but if they do.. oh well, move on with the times. Paul On 9/23/07, Bill Harms <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > ...............
