The Official LGP Pittsburgh Sport Radio Thread

i was wrong about the success of the station...

http://www.radio-info.com/site/markets/grid/pittsburgh

WEAE (1250) 2.1
KDKA-FM (93.7) 1.0
WBGG (970) 0.3
WXDX (105.9) 6.0
WDVE (102.5) 9.7
KDKA-AM (1020) 9.2

Unless the numbers improve in a hurry, that station will unfortunately be very short lived. Those are abysmal numbers for an FM station. I am able to listen to 93.7 on my Driod and I have enjoyed it so far. It's nice to have some alternatives in Pittsburgh Sports Radio, but the Pittsburgh market is not large enough to support more than one or two sports talk radio stations.

[Point Breeze Penguins]

I doubt they pull the plug on it as fast as they did with the Man Station.

agreed with many that ron cook shtinks. also agree with many that 6pm-2am is the best time to listen to the fan. both greg and andrew are very knowledgeable in football, college basketball, and hockey. plus kalena bell is on every 20 minutes.

WBGG needs to get the Czabe back. I like Linnelli, but he's just not pulling it.

[Malkamaniac]

I think they need a few more heavy hitter guys. The Ron Cook thing absolutely sucks.

[Troy Loney]

are you guys saying that the fan is going to be shut down?

and whatever happened to eddie crow?

[Point Breeze Penguins]

Eddie Crow got fired back in late February. He has made some appearances on the WTAE Sunday evening show.

That's weak, only because they replaced him with chris mack. that dude has a really lame sense of humor on the air.

The fan plz use iheartradio or some other device so I can listen on my phone kthxbai

If you have an iPhone, you can use the CBS Radio app.

iheartradio is a clear channel app and will only ever get their stations.

wait. how do you get radio on your droid?

[Sam's Drunk Dog]

wait. how do you get radio on your droid?

I downloaded an app named "A Online Radio" from the Droid Market. I then did a search for "93.7" or the "Fan" and eventually found the station. It might take a while for your to find it. I can also listen to ESPN 1250 and KDKA 1020.

[Kicksave]

KDKAFM is the call #s for their station.

[PensOnDVD]

Would KDKA FM entertain the thought of stealing MM from the X? Seems thats the only way for a station to have success in that market.

solid, I've been trying to get Bucco games at work (insert nutting sucks here) and they blocked the streaming online, so I'll try this. Thanks

found it, good stuff! listening to 1250 now, really good quality.

[PghSkins]

plus kalena bell is on every 20 minutes.

That's a positive? She sounds like a refugee from the Slippery Rock University radio station.

[PensOnDVD]

Jesus Christ look at 970! That's awful.

[Kicksave]

970 threw in the towel.

What would 93.7, Madden, & the drive have to be doing for you to turn on Bendel on the drive home?

[Kicksave]

Joe Bendel is a joke. I wouldn't feel bad if he lost his job.

[PensOnDVD]

I would bet those 970 numbers are from radio's where the dial is broken or they are just too lazy to change the channel.

I don't believe KDKA FM will pull the plug until after football season. They have to give themselves one college/NFL season to see if that helps.

He is terrible.
