When did a station legal ID become the audio equivalent of a cup of hemlock? I
find its a great place to be creative, promotions-minded and just a little
warped.
Just get the calls + city of license in the clear. THEN go nuts.

Driving westward across the continent in December, 1983, I found myself in
the middle of the Mojave Desert with zero receivable stations on FM and
only one or two on AM. One of the AM's was a very strong top 40 station
that ran ads aimed at southern California. I couldn't quite make the
Hi,
My AUX log is very simple, I have the 5 second fade down with a STOP
transition. As its hard timed, I had to do this for every hour (and
half hour as we do weird things at the top and bottom). So I have 48
fades every day.
The important part is the log chain to reload the aux log every

long tunes for the middle of the hour where there is not so much of
The alternate log fading-down of the main long while playing a station ID
is an optimal solution, thank you Wayne! I've created an alternate log to
do just that. Thanks to anybody who contributed to the RML documentation,
it was invaluable.

Best option I've found is to use the aux log. At xx:59.54 I make the aux fire
a macro which runs a 5 second fade and stop on the main log.
Then in the main log I have hard timed starts on the top of the hour.
The 1 second buffer was important as I tended to get events firing out of
sequence
Good evening everyone,
I'm setting up an automated DJ for times when our station has no live DJ.
My goal is to play the station's legal ID within 2 minutes of the top of
the hour, (between 58:00 and 00:02). I'm using a single clock for the
entire grid. The clock plays a MUSIC-group cart every

In the USA that's legal. It's the
