Anyone know why 1230AM has no coverage tonight?

It did not work over the weekend either.  At least not for the Potato Bowl.  Wxtq is no longer streaming either so no Tune In Radio.  Was counting on that over the weekend and earlier tonight.

Hopefully our friends in the Convo can help us with this?

I was looking for the potato pre-game and the N Iowa hoops game and found non-stop tebow drivel on 1230. not cool.

Sounds like they've canned us.  Really wish we could get a consistent affiliate in Columbus...But seeing how everyone drops us about 2 years after giving us a shot, I am guessing the ratings are pretty terrible.

I used to rely on the local Columbus station.  If our flagship could stay reliable with their stream that is all I need.  I find the Tune In Radio app the perfect fit.  I can listen from anywhere.  Bluetooth through the car audio quality is great. Was out of state during the Temple game and listened to the pre-game - pre-game on WATH then the pre-game on WXTQ before catching the ESPN broadcast.  The stretch audio works ok on the EVO but Tune In by far is the best quality.  Maybe the stream numbers for the flagship could generate some additional National Ads.  Seems to be a lot of people emailing Russ & Rob from all over North America during the broadcasts.

Given that I've never tried this because I live in Cbus, I guess I'll have to ask for help and learn.

It's my understanding that 1230 has been having technical problems. They are under contract with Ohio through 2013.
