NYC losing Rock radio station AGAIN!!!
WRXP 101.9 announced yesterday they are being sold to CBS so they put WFAN on FM radio. I love this station and can't believe we're losing it again. :( The NY area really needs an Alt Rock station for those of us that don't have satellite radio.

It was even better this time around...I have Satellite and this is still a bummer
I did back flips when it came back this summer and to lose it again is awful.
You're not kidding. If you like rock music in this area the only station you have is Q104.3 which is all classic rock. Nothing for new music.
Total buzz kill losing this station.

Even in Buffalo we have like 6-8 legitimate stations as we are aided by some kick-ass Canadian ones as well.
Wow, that didn't take long. I am very disappointed to hear it. I agree with the other poster's comment about the repetition. Since they went back on, their play list has been pretty limited and the station was never as good as it was before the news format.
I guess it's back to classic rock and Beatles lunch hours again :fp:

I read a couple of articles online and it looks like the plan was always to sell 101.9 to another company and the alt rock format was just a cheap stop gap until they made the sale since they really didn't pay any on air talent.
Depressing.

Beavis: Heh heh. Oh yeah. Yeah! Get those spoons out of my face before I shove them up your butt!
Butthead: Huh huh.
