As a big fan of WQXR over the years this was a sad night. Yes I know they are over on 105.9 now but it will never be the same.
It was a great sign off and like Allan said, it was a very enjoyable thing to listen to.
The flip of frequencies was smooth.
For those of you scoring at home:
WQXR signed off on 96.3 at 8:00pm and 105.9 had dead air for about 7 or 8 seconds before signing on with the simulcast of 93.9
When 105.9 signed on as WQXR, the IBOC was turned on immediately, but with no RDS.
96.3 signed on at 8pm immediately following the sign off of WQXR, and were in Mono for 3 minutes, and then the Stereo light and RDS and IBOC came on at about 8:03
