Bob FM in Yakima
August 10, 2006
NRC Broadcasting flipped Steamboat Springs, CO modern rocker 95.9 The Mountain (KIDN-FM) to Variety Hits as 95.9 Jack FM (using the ABC satellite feed) on 8/8/2006.
The only case of Jack FM being on the AM dial is history, as 870 KJMP in Ft. Collins dropped its bizarre simulcast of KJAC (which targets Denver but provides city-grade coverage to Ft. Collins and Cheyenne) on 7/17/2006 to become a simulcast of Oldies KRRR in Cheyenne. Besides the notion of Jack FM on the AM dial being strange, KJMP fell entirely within the broadcast radius of KJAC, rendering it redundant.
Myrtle Beach's 104.9 WYNA split from being a Hot AC simulcast (as Cool 104.9 & 100.7 with partner station WGTN-FM) to go Variety Hits on 8/8/2006 as 104.9 Bob FM. WGTN-FM remains Hot AC as Cool 100.7 (though its signal doesn't reach the Myrtle Beach metro.)
