August 1st Is Big Start Date For Radio

August 1st is the scheduled start date for CBS Radio's simulcast of News 780 AM WBBM on the FM dial at 105.9 in Chicago.  Some expect Merlin Media to end stunting on 101.1 FM New in Chicago and 101.9 FM New in NYC and unveil an expected female-oriented News/Talk format, possibly airing music on weekends.

And now we hear August 1st is the start date for Steve 'That Guy" Kramer on 98.7 FM WSJT, CBS Radio's recently launched Hot AC, branded at "Play 98.7" in Tampa.  Facebook Fan page is here.

Kramer recently ended a run at CHR Island 105.9 FM WILN in Panama City, Fl and he brings his ensemble with him.

He along with co-hosts Holly O'Connor and Miguel Fuller will  be jumping into a highly competitive AM Drive arena.

Tampa is also the location of an intense Top 40 battle between Cox Radio's Hot 101.5 FM WPOI and Clear Channel's 93.3 FM WFLZ.

By the way, Hot 101/5's new website is now up and active. Click Here.
