BREAKING NEWS
Here is an e mail notice sent to WILK insiders regarding a change at the station.
"Right now if you turn your radio on to 103.1FM you hear the busy sounds of construction. Northeast Pa's newest radio station is being built before your ears and is taking shape to debut at 6am Friday May 25. In some ways it's not a new station at all, but an old friend in brand new clothing. WILK has always been on three powerful AM dial positions with coverage in Wilkes-Barre on 980 am, Scranton on 910am (with a tower high atop the Scranton Times Building) and in Hazleton on 1300am. Now with the additional FM frequency the station's unique brands of news, talk and sports programming will be heard on 103.1. Additionally long time newspaper columnist Steve Corbett will begin a new live and local talk show at 3pm, appropriately titled "Corbett". Steve's show will feature his always provocative and never dull personality every weekday from 3pm to 7pm. So now you have a choice. WILK on AM and 103.1."

WILK-FM is not new, for those who are. It was one of Roy Morgan's few failures, but not due to programming. They just couldn't keep the transmitter on frequency ... or, quite possibly, in the band. He had WILK-AM, WILK-TV and wanted WILK-FM, but it wasn't to be.
Speaking of which, if you look at WVIA's sign on 315, it mentions WVIA-AM and WVIA-FM. I should ask Mr. Eclectic (Reg. TM, G.Graham 1973) about it sometime.
Great. It will beat listening to the White House talking points that Hannity repeats everyday. More local programming the better.
Heard Kevin on the radio today saying Kathy whatever is along....the fact is Kathy whatever is just plain wrong!
I think Corbett will be good. Kind of a dead end kid type of charactter.
