SMITH CONSULTING ENGINEERS ---_ ENGINEERING STATEMENT This engineering statement is prepared on behalf of Long Nine, Inc., licensee of Radio Stations WMAY(AM) - Springfield, Illinois, WNNS(FM) - Springfield, Illinois, and WQLZ(FM) - Taylorville, Illinois, and proposed assignee of Radio Station WLUJ(FM)- Petersburg, Illinois. It is prepared in support of comments in MM Docket 01-120, which proposes to reallot Channel 230B1 from Lincoln, Illinois to Sherman, Illinois and modify the license for WMHX(FM) to specify Sherman as its community of license. 1 This proposed reallotment would leave Lincoln (population 15,369 ) devoid of full time commercial service, leaVing only a daytime AM station2 (WLLM) and a low power noncommercial educational FM station (WLNX) providing local service to Lincoln. On the other hand, while Sherman (population 2871) presently has no local service, it is, as shown below, located immediately contiguous to the Springfield Urbanized Area4 and is well served by stations licensed to other communities in the Springfield area. Figure 1.0 is a map exhibit depicting the boundaries of Sherman in relation to those for the Springfield Urbanized Area, as defined by the 1990 U. S. Census. As shown in this map exhibit, while Sherman is not presently considered to be located within this urbanized area, its southern boundary is contiguous with a portion of the 1AII population data in this engineering statement is extracted from the 2000 U. S. Census. 2Although WLLM is authorized to operate during nighttime hours with 35 watts, these nighttime facilities operate on a secondary basis and WLLM is considered by the FCC to be a daytime only station. JWLNX operates with only an effective radiated power of 0.225 kilowatts at 21 meters above average terrain. 4The boundaries depicted in this engineering statement for the Springfield Urbanized area are based on 1990 census data, as the Census Bureau has not yet released updated urbanized area boundaries based on 2000 census data. It is possible, when these updated urbanized area boundaries are released, that Sherman will be located either wholly or partially within this urbanized area. 1 CARL E. SMITH CONSULTING ENGINEERS ----- northern boundary of this urbanized area. Also shown in this figure are the present and proposed WMHX sites and the predicted 70 dBu contours across this urbanized area from both ofthese sites. As per FCC policy at the allotment stage, both of these con­ tours were projected assuming uniform terrain and nondireetional operation with maxi­ mum Class B1 facilities of 25 kilowatts effective radiated power at 100 meters above average terrain. As shown in this map exhibit, the present WMHX 70 dBu contour will encompass 45.9 square kilometers, or 34.5%, ofthe land area within this urbanized area, while the proposed WMHX 70 dBu contour will encompass 64.1 square kilome­ ters, or 48.2%, of the land area within this urbanized area. Figure 1.0 also depicts the fully spaced site location area for Channel 230B1 in Sherman, which encompasses 314.0 square kilometers. Also shown in this figure is a dashed boundary, which subdivides this fully spaced site area. Sites located within this fUlly spaced site area to the south and west of this dashed boundary, which encom­ passes 221.3 square kilometers, would provide 70 dBu service to 50% or more ofthe Springfield Urbanized Area. Thus, based on this information, sites located in 70.5% of the fully spaced site location area for Channel 230B1 in Sherman would permit WMHX to place a 70 dBu signal over 50% or more of this urbanized area.

    2017 Annual Report 2017 Annual Letter To our fellow shareholders: Every now and then I am introduced to someone who knows, kind of, who I am and what I do and they instinctively ask, ‘‘How are things at Saga?’’ (they pronounce it ‘‘say-gah’’). I am polite and correct their pronunciation (‘‘sah-gah’’) as I am proud of the word and its history. This is usually followed by, ‘‘What is a ‘‘sah-gah?’’ My response is that there are several definitions — a common one from 1857 deems a ‘‘Saga’’ as ‘‘a long, convoluted story.’’ The second one that we prefer is ‘‘an ongoing adventure.’’ That’s what we are. Next they ask, ‘‘What do you do there?’’ (pause, pause). I, too, pause, as by saying my title doesn’t really tell what I do or what Saga does. In essence, I tell them that I am in charge of the wellness of the Company and overseer and polisher of the multiple brands of radio stations that we have. Then comes the question, ‘‘Radio stations are brands?’’ ‘‘Yes,’’ I respond. ‘‘A consistent allusion can become a brand. Each and every one of our radio stations has a created personality that requires ongoing care. That is one of the things that differentiates us from other radio companies.’’ We really care about the identity, ambiance, and mission of each and every station that belongs to Saga. We have radio stations that have been on the air for close to 100 years and we have radio stations that have been created just months ago.

Most analyses of public radio listening examine the performance of individual stations within this large mix, the contributions of specific national programs, or aggregate numbers for the system as a whole. This report takes a different approach. Through an extensive, multi-year study of 228 stations that generate about 80% of public radio’s audience, we review patterns of listening to groups of stations categorized by the formats that they present. We find that stations that pursue different format strategies – news, classical, jazz, AAA, and the principal combinations of these – have experienced significantly different patterns of audience growth in recent years and important differences in key audience behaviors such as loyalty and time spent listening. This quantitative study complements qualitative research that the Station Resource Group, in partnership with Public Radio Program Directors, and others have pursued on the values and benefits listeners perceive in different formats and format combinations. Key findings of The Public Radio Format Study include: • In a time of relentless news cycles and a near abandonment of news by many commercial stations, public radio’s news and information stations have seen a 55% increase in their average audience from Spring 1999 to Fall 2004.

  • SAGA COMMUNICATIONS, INC. (Exact Name of Registrant As Specified in Its Charter)
    2016 Annual Report 2016 Annual Letter To our fellow shareholders: Well…. here we go. This letter is supposed to be my turn to tell you about Saga, but this year is a little different because it involves other people telling you about Saga. The following is a letter sent to the staff at WNOR FM 99 in Norfolk, Virginia. Directly or indirectly, I have been a part of this station for 35+ years. Let me continue this train of thought for a moment or two longer. Saga, through its stockholders, owns WHMP AM and WRSI FM in Northampton, Massachusetts. Let me share an experience that recently occurred there. Our General Manager, Dave Musante, learned about a local grocery/deli called Serio’s that has operated in Northampton for over 70 years. The 3rd generation matriarch had passed over a year ago and her son and daughter were having some difficulties with the store. Dave’s staff came up with the idea of a ‘‘cash mob’’ and went on the air asking people in the community to go to Serio’s from 3 to 5PM on Wednesday and ‘‘buy something.’’ That’s it. Zero dollars to our station. It wasn’t for our benefit. Community outpouring was ‘‘just overwhelming and inspiring’’ and the owner was emotionally overwhelmed by the community outreach. As Dave Musante said in his letter to me, ‘‘It was the right thing to do.’’ Even the local newspaper (and local newspapers never recognize radio) made the story front page above the fold. Permit me to do one or two more examples and then we will get down to business.

  • Intern Hosts 2009
    RECOMMENDED INTERN HOSTS 2010 Steps in setting up your internship: 1. First, remember that internship course credit is reserved for senior Mass Communications majors only. If you wish to do an internship before you’re a senior, you’ll receive no credit, but it’s still a great thing to do for the experience. 2. Consult the flyers that promote newer internships (found on the Internship bulletin board) along with this list of internships that previous interns have recommended to research and narrow down your prospects. Then go to see your Mass Comm. Dept. advisor to get his/her advice about whether the prospects you’ve selected are right for you. Get your advisor’s help in ranking your prospects. Don’t skip this step! You’ll be surprised how helpful your advisor will be to narrow down your short list to the best for you. 3. Read internship FAQs found on our website, <www.siue.edu/MASSCOMM/internship.html> Pick up or download a copy of the latest MC 481 syllabus from this site so you know what’s required. Check out resume and cover letter writing handout, etc., also found at our Internship website. Then you’ll understand what’s required. And in case it comes up in your internship job interview, you will know and can share the information on the syllabus. 4. Contact your number one and two choices. Do NOT send out a dozen query letters or call several internship venues. If there’s one kind of prospective intern they all hate, it’s the internship “shopper.” They don’t want to waste their time interviewing and considering hiring people who are not serious.
