Our second F M news outlet in Chicago needs a whole lot of 
polishing!!  Was WKQX is now WWWn.  Terrible or no format, random 
musical noises throughout the traffic reports and just very 
unprofessional.  Had occasion to speak with a professional 
broadcaster this afternoon and his take was that he has heard more 
professional sounding high school stations!!
They have a few of the overnight/weekend staff from WBBM and thtir 
morning drive team are two people I've never heard of, which doesn't 
make them bad!!  And I didn't have time to listen to the morning 
folks to see if it is better than overnight.
I hope they can put it together or it will be time for yet another 
format change!!
