It sort of makes sense from a business standpoint, seeing as KJR-AM is
the only one of Clear Channel's Seattle stations that's not already
using HD.
Speaking of KJR (sort of), there's a rumor going around town that KIRO
might switch to all sports, especially if they take back the Mariners
games from KOMO (KOMO's contract ends this year, and they've been losing
money on the broadcasts). If KIRO changes format, the current newstalk
format would supposedly move to KBSG-FM. All of which remains to be
seen, but head to head competition with KIRO would probably cut deeply
into KJR's 2.0 share in the ratings (KJR has been sports talk for many
years). Seeing as KIRO usually places in the top 5 with something near
a 4.0 share, I don't see the wisdom of their going all Sports, but
stranger things have happened in the radio business.
