1630kHz KCJJ back to booming-in at SW WV, 00:50UTC.
« on: October 21, 2022, 0700 UTC »
Had KCJJ, again, to listen to on a job site commute. And, surprise, the female DJ was live, talking about the 1st tune she heard at the time when 1st working there as a teen in 2015, and then playing it as her choice. (WOW!!! A commercial station that still letīs you do that? Thatīs rare, today!) Top of the hour ID, CBS News, and local Iowa city, IA news, then back to 10-year-old hit music. Nice, to have this to listen to, again, with it getting darker earlier.

The best two statements of advice that I've ever gotten are from my brother-in-law in the early 1990's. 1st one, when I bought a used '89 Olds Cutless, my bro-in-law said, "Congratulations!!! You've just bought a deficit!". The other, was on a work environment, " No matter where you go, it's going to be f***'ed -up!". No truer words have been spoken.

Iowa City is a college town. The University of Iowa is located there. I would guess with the place being flat as a pancake, UoI's campus station influences the local radio market.

It IS the local market. Its akin to what the University of Wisconsin is to Madison (without the brainwashing and jump around, of course)
