Original Report 8/4: After it lost its perch as the top Country station in the market as it fell behind Entercom’s “93.1 The Wolf” WPAW, Clear Channel’s 104.1 WTQR Winston-Salem/Greensboro, NC has spent much of the summer “Under Construction”. That will come to an end on Friday, August 5 at 1:04pm.
The station’s airstaff, morning hosts Jeff Roper and Angie Ward, along with afternoon host Jeff Wicker have been off the air since the end of June. They will return with the relaunch of the station.
Based on Clear Channel’s registrations this week of NewCountryQ1041.com and Q1041NewCountry.com, the final product looks like it will be a younger skewing, more current intensive brand.
