The Southern Ontario/WNY Radio-TV Forum / Attn. Global: You Need To Fix This Webpage

**Posted by RadioActive** October 13, 2024 7:13 am

The page in question is where they post the podcast for the Roy Green Show, and Saturday's segments are up there, so the page is still in use. The very first thing it says is this:

"You can also listen to the Roy Green Show live on these stations: 900 CHML Hamilton, Global News Radio 640 Toronto, 980 CFPL London, 680 CJOB Winnipeg, 770 CHQR Calgary, 980 CKNW Vancouver, 650 CKOM, 980 CJME, & Radio NL,"

There are several problems with this. First, CHML no longer exists, thanks to Corus' poor management, 640 has long ago stopped calling itself "Global News Radio," you don't list CHED Edmonton at all, even though the station, now at 880, carries the show from 1-4 PM local time. And Radio NL in Kamloops (which should have a period at the end of the sentence and not a comma) doesn't appear to carry the show at all any more.

Other than that, it's fine!

If one were to look up Global Kingston, under schedule are still listed 2 over-the-air TV repeaters that are long gone:
Brighton and Brockville.

Check out Global News Durham sometime. The "news headlines" for Durham are GTA news items cribbed from Global Toronto. The last locally updated news story on the website was posted in 2021.

The need to update the slogan for 95.3. They dropped the "Welcome To The Party" slogan and replaced with "Play All Day". Question: Is 95.3 more of a Top 40(CHR) or Hot AC format? Judging by the playlist, it looks like they are more of a Top 40 (CHR) format.

Could you clarify: didn't Corus switch to multiplexing four years ago or so, shutting down the Brighton and Brockville sites as transmitters but using their remaining towers in Kingston and Ottawa to multiplex separate signals for the Brighton and Spencerville over-the-air contours? Or are has Corus now turned those signals off permanently too as a further cost cut?
