I am confused about something and perhaps someone can enlighten me. If midday's are the highest rated day part on WLS-FM, which is when they are on the Scott Shannon feed, then why don't they duplicate that sound during other day parts. The station has one sound with Scott Shannon, and then a different sound during other times of the day. I know that when I listen to the Shannon show, there is an excitment to it. A wide variety of oldies are played. I am not finding this during other times...not that its bad...its not. One reason could be that 10-3 will eventually go local, but that would be altering the stations top show. It could be that they don't care because the oldies audience has nowhere else to go, but I doubt that. I am just trying to have this make sense to me. But perhaps after 30 years in radio, I should realize that not everything in radio makes sense!!
