I don't know who is running the board over at Howard 100 tonight but they're screwing up the broadcast like you wouldn't believe. I tuned in about 10 minutes early to hear the Howard 100 News this evening around 6pm. A few minutes before the broadcast was supposed to go live, they played about 10 different audio clips over each other in unison. Then they went silent for a few seconds, then started to play the Wise Guy Show from one of the other channels on SIRIUS. That lasted a few seconds, then they played the opening song for Howard 100 News which is Red Peters' "Why Can't I Say These Things" twice!... Then another audio clip out of sequence... then the Red Peters song AGAIN! Three times? C'mon!
Were they trying to fill time because of technical problems or just plain screwing up? Who knows? They didn't start Howard 100 News until 6:13PM!
I sure hope this isn't the sign of things to come. I know Howard's channel is still in it's infancy but holy crap... Howard has complained for years about the engineering staff at WXRK, what is he going to say about this crew?
