1480 KBMS used to be (satellite-fed) Urban AC full-time. I think I once heard (probably here) that it was one of the best-rated local affiliates for the satellite feed. What ya tink bout dat?

"Do you think Portland will support an Urban AC station?"

Fresh, I am going to give you the same answer here that I did when you asked this several months back on Radio Info: The only real Urban AC in the area--KBMS--is on AM, putting out only 1,000 watts daytime and has severe coverage problems around much of the area, so I have noted. (Or as you rather eloquently summarised it, it's "wack".)

Given that, do you really think anyone around here even cares about supporting the format?
¿Seriously?

I actually miss Dj Fresh. For some reason I think Radiohustla is not Dj Fresh. I think Radiohustla might be DJ Fresh's Offspring.

Back in about 1998 or 99', we had a part-time instructor at Mt. Hood Community who swore the only natural new format flip for Portland was "Jammin' oldies". "Jamin' Oldies, Jamin' Oldies, Jammin' Oldies." His was like a broken record. There have been, what... 8 or 10 music format flips in Portland since then. Yeah... still no "Jammin' oldies". It really perturbs me when instructors use their captive classroom audiences to present their opinions as fact.

Jammin oldies is probably incorporated into stations like K-hits. I assume Jammin oldies includes stuff like Motown. We allready have 2 oldies stations in portland, now if we didn't, I think a Jammin Oldies station might work.
Just my 2 cents
Which probably makes 0 cents!

In 1998, KKSN-FM was the only oldies outlet in town. If I remember correctly, "Jammin' Oldies" was the flavor of the month back then (i.e. a flash in the pan).

"Jammin' Oldies" are still groovin' in Fresno and Bakersfield, but that's about it. Portland just isn't "ethnic" enough!

The answer to this topic has been resoundingly stated: In the Portland market, Urban AC is a small niche that is currently justifiable only on AM or on a HD radio subchannel. On the bright side, both of those are available without paying subscription fees.
