2007 NFL on Erie Radio
September 10, 2007
Well, yesterday (9/9/07) was either yet another day for Erie area Steelers fans to celebrate (like Yours Truly) or a reason for Browns fans to jump into Lake Erie after another frustrating loss to “The Black & Gold.” I hate to add to their frustration but not to worry, it’s media related. I’ll leave the post game analysis to “The Score” & “The Fan.” I discovered yesterday that radio play by play of the Browns is no longer on ANY Erie area station. I checked & found the Steelers on Cleveland’s former home, WJET 1400. I then checked the Steelers former home on 1330 & found the last place Pirates game on. Fear not though, there are a few options on the dial available to choose from. Stations include: WFXJ 107.5 & WFUN 970 / Ashtabula, WKBN 570 / Youngstown and finally WTAM 1100 / Cleveland. (Note: WFUN, WKBN & WTAM may pre-empt any scheduled Browns game for the Cleveland Indians during the regular & post season.) Another note, WQHZ “Z-102.3” is now carrying Sunday Night NFL games as well as the Steelers / Bills game this Sunday afternoon. You may hear a few Bills games on “Z” with the Indians in the playoffs & their games carried on Buffalo’s usual Erie affiliate, WRIE 1260 “The Score.” One final note, Steelers fans south of Erie who cannot get WJET 1400 very well can get the games on WUZZ 94.3 from Meadville.
