The eagle is comeing back

[@brianledezma1922]

Honestly, I’m not surprised, however, due to the low ratings of the former rock format, I’m surprised they didn’t just flip the station to the growing English and Spanish format of magic that’s popular in Miami and other Hispanic markets And, I don’t see iHeart media doing anything different with the Eagle this time around even if it is coming back, aren’t they making the same mistake again since they tried two different times? And each time they’re ratings were pretty low for a major market station?

[@brianledezma1922]

@@gradymcclintock6160 you’ve got a point there, I wonder if this will dampen 103.7’s ratings once again? I feel very sad for the staff members of the freak, but, talk radio really wasn’t iHeart media specialty even with the talk stations they do have, most of it is centralized from other markets all that to say, I believe local talk radio, especially in a rather depressed economy, is not an expense that iHeart media is willing to bear the burden of

You have to have an HD radio, and be able to get KEGL's HD signal good.

Well if you think it rules well on “KEGL HD2” they have “The Eagle” Rock Station Format on “97.1 HD2” that you can listen to on HD Radio.

Or you can listen to the Classic Rock Station on “KZPS Lone Star 92.5”

Which Music Do You Prefer To Listen To “Classic Rock Music on KZPS Lone Star 92.5” or “Rock Music on 97.1 HD2 The Eagle” or do you prefer both?

[@elgastsos210]

The station has continually been on the decline. Now its completely unlistenable.

[@nsasupporter7557]

Really sucks that the Eagle no longer exists on regular radio, you have to get an HD radio to listen to it now

[@elgastsos210]

@@nsasupporter7557 I'll pass. Kinda like not hearing the ambulance chasers & lease crook commercials anyways.

[@nsasupporter7557]

@@elgastsos210 like I said it really sucks that the Eagle is gone from public radio now, but it’s not the end of the world. It’s not like my life revolved around listening to that radio station. Most (if not, all) of the music they played on it I had already heard a million times before anyway and I’m not into any new music, really. I remember when the Eagle went away that first time in 2004 and was brought back 3 years later and I survived those 3 years lol I’ll just listen to Alt 103.7 now I guess whenever I’m in the car

[@tonyreyna1067]

Go back to top 40

Well The Eagle is not gonna be that unlistenable on public radio
