Reminder that Air America is moving to a much stronger signal station tomorrow, October 1st, to 950AM. Currently at 1530 AM and 740AM with a very weak signal.

They'll keep the 1530 simulcast in the west suburbs, and drop 740 in Hudson.

Anyone in the Brainerd area know about WWWI-1270? They're listed as an AAR affiliate.

4. KSNB-950 is on with liberal talk now

This is the new (temporary) schedule for 950:

Temporary Monday-Friday lineup:

9:00-11:00am Wendy Wilde
11:00- 1:00pm Al Franken
1:00- 4:00pm Ruth Koscielak
4:00-5:00pm Al Franken
5:00- 8:00pm Ed Schultz

The station is still officially owned by Infinity Broadcasting, and operated under an LMA until the FCC approves the sale to the new owners, likely in a few weeks. Due to a contractual agreement (and really messy lawsuit with Infinty's WCCO radio), Ruth Koscielak's show is required to be carried. Hence, Franken's show is temporarily broken up for really boring coffee talk for middle-aged soccer moms. Ed Schultz's show is bumped a couple hours, and the rest of the schedule looks to be AAR programming, though no Malloy, Rhodes or 'Unfiltered'.

Once the sale is official, Ruth is off 950 and back to her network of suburban rimshot stations. Schedule will go back to normal.
