    Damn, that sucks. I grew to really enjoy listening to Blazer games on FM vs AM during those times I couldn't watch them on TV.

    Now that the Blazers are done and Rome is off the station, I haven't even turned the dial there in a week or so.

    750 KXL recently moved to FM, they took over 101 KUFO's station. If you want to hear the difference in quality between AM and FM just listen to 750 AM then switch over to 101.1 FM.

    The station GM was just on the Game,

    The 60,000 people who bought the 95.5 the Game app are going to have to buy the new 750 the Game app.

    Hahahahaha!

    Well, that's the end of me listening to that station for anything but Duck and Blazer games. AM Radio? That still exists?

    So, if KXL moved to 101.1 won't the Game be broadcast there, so it stays on FM?

    If 95.5 FM is shutting down and moving to AM, that's the last I'll ever hear it. No way I'll be able to pick that up where I live. Nor would I want to. Brilliant marketing move.

    This has been in the works for a long time, though I don't know how they can afford all the payroll for the local shows with a much smaller reach.
