Agreed. Sonic is the only thing of value on Edmonton radio. And the Bear somehow found a way to be twice as annoying as CJAY.

I like listening to streaming radio via 3G from other cities when I’m in the car. Nothing better than listening to reports of traffic jams you are guaranteed to never hit.

everytime i am back in CGY, listening to the radio makes me want to crash my car.... it's just brutal. hopefully these changes actually introduce improvement in the FM world of the 403.

Personally I've really been enjoying AMP & as has been mentioned would just like more variety than they play right now. I used to love JackFM for years once I got tired of CJAY and they took Rock107 away but lately the dial has been on AMP if it isn't on the AM band parked at 960. The traffic jam at 5pm is almost always excellent.

Am I the only one that misses The Breeze?

I can listen to Ozzy and Randy Rhoades all day but everybody needs a little smooth jazz in their life.

Three radio stations I want in Calgary: Jazz Station, 80s Metal Station, Electronica/Techno/Trance Station (not crappy 2010 club/dance garbage).

The Bear is terrible. I listen to the country station before I listen to the Bear.

Saw it - not a major departure from the old logo but in my opinion altogether useless.

No love for Q107? Nights with Alice Cooper is better than anything else the other stations offer by far. Vibe is terrible, they'll still be terrible with a new name.

there's a billboard with the new cjay logo on 10th ave and about 4th st SW

not a huge change, as someone already mentioned.

amp radio was good when it first started.. no commercials, and no radio personel

their morning show is absolutely horrid, especially the chick.. she is the most ignorant and stupid girl ever.

All radio stations are like that when the undergo a format change. I think it is mandated by the CRTC. Plus, logistically, they need to hire new staff, and get advertisers.
