Howie Carr thread for the month
Or try TuneIn or a station app like WNTK.
RKO’s HD signal is on WEEI-FM HD2 93.7 and can work well for me as I’m in Beverly and the antenna is in Peabody. No more Howie there, though.
It wouldn’t happen but imagine if Howie were even on signals like WBOQ 104.9, north of Boston; WATD 95.9, south of Boston etc.
WTIC in worcester 830 is a strong signal!
WCRN 830 Worcester
WHYN 560 Springfield
(signal strong even in areas of southern CT, not so much East/West/North)
Would be awesome if he was picked up on WTIC in Hartford,CT
ooops, you’re right, it’s WCRN in Worcester..
WTIC is a great station from Hartford...listen to Jim Vicevich in the mornings!
1080 on the dial..
Howie has added WBSM 1420 New Bedford (...who just got rid of their longtime morning man)
Background noises on Howie’s WMEX feed right now...

Scanning the tv over the weekend, Crystal Mangum was on the ID channel about her subsequent arrests and murder conviction.
Playing to the desired fable in spite of facts only encourages seriously worse behavior.
Steven Orloff will not be down for breakfast. Salem News:
>>MIDDLETON An inmate at the Middleton Jail who faced federal charges he posed as a teenage boy to solicit explicit chat and videos from young teen girls died Sunday in an apparent suicide, Essex County Sheriff’s Department spokesman Maurice Pratt said.
Pratt said Steven Orloff, 49, of Framingham died of an “apparent hanging.” The death was confirmed by Essex District Attorney spokesman Carrie Kimball Monahan.
“He died in a shower,” Pratt said. The shower was part of a unit consisting of a large bay of bunk beds where inmates live.
Orloff was admitted to Middleton Jail on Dec. 13, 2013, Pratt said.
Corrections officers were conducting a count of inmates late Sunday morning, and when Orloff was not in his bed, they searched for him, and found him hanging in the shower at 11:45 a.m.
“When someone is not in their bed, they do a search,” Pratt said.
Pratt did not know what Orloff used to allegedly hang himself.
Monahan told the Salem News some type of “ligature” was used.
Corrections officers tried to save Orloff, Pratt said. Orloff was transported to Beverly Hospital and pronounced dead at 12:30 p.m.
The state Medical Examiner took possession of the man’s body, Pratt said.
The jail’s security investigation team and internal affairs are investigating the apparent suicide. The Federal Marshals also responded because “it’s their inmate,” Pratt said.
State Police detectives assigned to the Essex District Attorney’s office also responded.
“We take this very seriously,” Pratt said. “Every corrections officers is annually trained in suicide prevention.” Pratt was not aware when Orloff faced his next court proceeding.
Arrested in December 2012
Orloff was 47 when he first faced state charges in December 2012. He was arraigned in Framingham District Court on charges of distribution of obscene matter and posing or exhibition a child in the nude in order to get explicit photos, according to an Associated Press report news reports at the time. He was ordered held on $20,000 bail after pleading not guilty.
Prosecutors at the time alleged Orloff posed as a 14-year-old boy to get a Cumberland County, Maine girl to send photos of herself to him, the Associated Press report says. He was also charged with sending her explicit photos, though they were not of him. He resigned as Director of Student Services at Stoneham High School in January 2013, according to the Boston Herald.
A listener mentioned the Howie Carr app for Android. Yes it is working (and has text features etc too)
On your smartphone go to Google Play or something similar and do a search for Howie Carr; easy to install
Thu column ping
Howie’s column today says his show airs on “five, soon to be seven stations in Mass.”
OK WMEX Boston, WCRN Worcester, WXTK Cape Cod, WHYN Holyoke and the just added WBSM New Bedford.
WCAP Lowell is aboard on New Yr’s Day...who’s the seventh...?
(wild guesses)
Maybe WPKZ 1280 (also 105.3) Fitchburg? Used to carry him.
Or Pittsfield somewhere?
WBSM 1420 covers the South Coast but might he also get on WSAR 1480...?
