I had mentioned this about a week ago and now it has happened, so there's the story. Clear Channel was getting weak ratings from 104.7 Pittsburgh and decided to go to country, a hot format right now esp. with younger people. As for Quinn and Rose I don't know if they'll wind up on WJAS but right now I think they're running the same Bloomdaddy guy from WV that WPGB was running--hopefully they'll consider Q and R. As expected many on the new Big 104.7 Country facebook are condemning this as a bad move. Well radio is a business and they're doing it for business reasons.
People are saying WJAS 1320 is tough to pick up...Same thing has happened elsewhere like in LA where CC put local talk on KFI 640 and moved Rush, etc. to 1150 (and to other nearby stations). I live in Boston area but visit Pitt. twice a year including in about a week so I'll see for myself as I drive around.
Approx signal range of 1320 (usually more optimistic than realistic); the antenna may be just E of highland park/zoo etc
