Welcome to the WION Forum!

[Scott Greczkowski]

On behalf of SatelliteGuys.US I would like to welcome all the listeners of WION I-1430 / FM 92.7 and all the folks joining us from Ionia County, Michigan to the new WION I-1430 Forum!

This forum was setup so that you can discussion all things related to WION as well as any happenings or things you find important in Ionia County! It is my hope that when news breaks in Ionia that not only will you tune to I-1430 to keep you informed, but that you will use this forum to discuss whats going on.

The possibilites for this forum are endless!

Make sure to check in each Friday as WION's own Jim Carlyle (known here as "Radio") will post the Fun Friday Flash Poll, and Jim will choose many of your replies to his poll for use on the air on his Coffee Crew Morning Show!

So IONA - I-1430 is YOUR RADIO STATION and now YOUR RADIO STATION now has its own forum for all things Ionia!

Please note the following Legal Mumbo Jumbo: Anything posted in this WION forum becomes property of WION Radio / SatelliteGuys.US, which simple means that by posting in this forum, your post may be used by WION including reading your post on the air.



On Behalf of SatelliteGuys.US and WION I-1430 Radio I would like to welcome you HOME to your New Forum and to SatelliteGuys.US!

Scott, thanks for this forum! We've had fun involving satguys in our Friday polls, and in conversation! I hope it helps the site, and is interactive for our listeners, too! Again, thanks!

Great to see a local Michigan station here!

Thank you! We're working on some ideas to help the station and augment the online presence. This was Scott's gift to us, he's "adopted" WION I think as one of his traditional media faves based on what we do, and has tuned in to our webcams on Fridays.

I'd like to add streaming to our site to share WION with the folks here, we're trying to do it, but there are hoops for royalties that don't play nice with my (older, functional, don't fix it if it ain't broke) automation. We're looking at options.

Please chime in with ideas on anything you see here......or, anything on our site! This is the place for it, as I dumped our facebook after my personal admin account was hacked once. I'll not be going back to it. Would rather have this kind of "traditional" traffic.

Again, thanks!

How old is the automation system that you're running?

It's actually only old in "version"...not in "manufacturer. We have "top of the line" Michigan made ENCO. They're the BEST of the BEST. Even WJR, big TV stations,
and others use it. CNN/CBS use it. Thing is, we like what works, and since (3) stations use it, we want to remain on the same versions. We're on version 4.x, the newer
ones are up to 10.x, but like the (now Cumulus) Detroit stations, we agree...don't upgrade what works in a stable manner! ENCO, like other companies went from making a stable (ugly, not real pretty) version, to a more "visually appealing" version as they revised. The big question is, "who cares what it looks like in the studio!" I'd rather have ugly and not have off-air time on weekends or when I'm away to worry about it!

I know, I know....too much information.
