Reports continue to circulate concerning Greater Media’s
WMGC-FM 105.1. They all point toward a
format flip from AC to sports.
RadioInsight sez the change is coming this Monday August 12
at 3 PM and is expected to brand at ‘Detroit Sports 105.1. Why 3 PM? That’s the start time for the station’s only
weekday live show.
Michiguide.com reports that PM Drive time slot will be
hosted by Drew Lane ,
former morning co-host on Greater Media’s WRIF.
Most of the station’s content is expected to be supplied by
ESPN Radio.
According to Michiguide.com, a format change would be the
frequency's 4th since Greater Media took ownership in 1996 when 105.1 was
Classical WQRS. In 1997 the classics gave way to Alternative Rock 'The Edge'
followed by Urban Oldies 'The Groove' in 1999 and then Adult Contemporary
'Magic 105.1' in 2001. After the retirement of Jim Harper in 2011, the AC
format has changed names from Magic 105.1 to Soft Rock 105.1 to the presently
used Today's 105.1.
