: : : FYI - It's not what anyone has been speculating. New new jocks. No new name. New no call letters. No format adjustment. It's not that exciting.

: : : It's a simple positioner change.

: : : Chicago's Hits & Hip Hop, B96 will become "Chicago's #1 Hit Music Station, B96"!

: : : Here's their new logo. There will be a new web site launched as well.

: :
: : ***
: : not even an actual logo change. it's the same logo with different colors and they removed the chicago's hits and hip hop.

:
: They are also pushing "b96hits.com" instead of "b96.com".

: Still haven't changed their "21+" site/logo yet.


B96.com actually redirects to B96hits.com

One interesting note: The b96hits.com domain is not registered to CBS. It's registered to Wayne Ward, their local designer. It's not even hosted on the normal CBS internal servers. It's hosted by a third party web hosting company, Hostway.
