I can see some value in this, as we too have many programs that fit into 1/2 hour slots. But we don’t change out programs nearly as frequently, so it’s less of an issue. One of our ‘standard’ format clocks is basically a long form (1/2 hour or more) show at the top of the hour, followed by music the rest of the hour, so that’s an easy clock to adapt for a new program.
