Doc1647545523 Posted October 26, 2012 Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 I guess "playing what we want" was too good to go on forever: http://www.dispatch.com/content/stories/business/2012/10/24/biz-brfs-1024-g5vju04l-1.html I loved the station in their early days, but continued to listen even as the advertising increased.

Wease Posted October 26, 2012 Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 Well that freaking sucks. It was the best station in Columbus... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wnaplay1647545503 Posted October 27, 2012 Report Share Posted October 27, 2012 Never heard of it. When did they stop playing country? Am I thinking of the right station? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark1647545493 Posted October 27, 2012 Report Share Posted October 27, 2012 You're thinking of a different station Jason. I think before "The Jack" it was R&B Oldies or something in those lines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buck531 Posted October 27, 2012 Report Share Posted October 27, 2012 That sucks. Because of this station I haven't listen to my sirius radio in months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmrmnhrm Posted October 27, 2012 Report Share Posted October 27, 2012 Is the format changing? Probably. From the article: Salem Communications has headquarters in California and owns or operates about 100 stations that play Christian and conservative-opinion content, including WRFD (880 AM). In other words, it will no longer have a preset on my car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImUrOBGYN Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 Probably. From the article: In other words, it will no longer have a preset on my car. Figured it'd be Clear Station that bought them out. That = an immediate death penalty on any radio I own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark1647545493 Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 So has anyone listened to the new 98.9 "The Answer" today? Kind of reminds me of a really laid back Alex Jones radio show with a hint of a religious twist to it. They definitely like to push their republican views and opinions.

jeffro Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 That was a station? What kind of music did they play? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark1647545493 Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 I don't think there's going to be any music. Sounds more like a political version of 97.1 'The Fan' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark1647545493 Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 http://rbr.com/salem-launches-98-9-fm-the-answer/ from the article Salem Communications is adding another NewsTalk radio station to its stable of talk stations around the country beginning 11/1. 98.9 FM The Answer is now born in Columbus, Ohio — the 34th largest market, with the LMA of WJKR-FM (Adult Hits/Hot AC) Jack-FM) from Radio One Licenses. The new talker will be the 25th NewsTalk radio station owned by Salem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cordell Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 Still fucking sucks, I hate talk radio, I want music, not some biased bullshit opinions. Guess I'll keep more CDs in my car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radio Flyer1647545514 Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 This is all we listened to at work to get away from the 96.3 and 105.7 same songs every day, different times playlist. Jack actually played some songs I haven't heard in years. Back to the constant IPod or Pandora. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wease Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 I already changed my preset. RIP Jack FM, the best radio station I've heard in Columbus in 12+ years... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Das Borgen Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 I liked Jack FM....I loved whatever it was before becoming Jack FM more with all the babymaking music and stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buck531 Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 There is a Jack FM app for your phone. I searched it the other day and found it. It's 106.x based out of some other state. Playing the same songs I believe. You also can still listen to it on the net.. http://www.jack.fm/ Still sucks though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
