I know ESPN 100.3 doesn't have the strongest signal in the world, but the last few days, it has been absolutely terrible. Anyone know what is going on?

I really don't understand why they can't get a decent tower. If they want to label themselves as ESPN New Orleans, then they need to be heard all over New Orleans. If that means moving from Houma, so be it.

I agree. I drive from Gonzales to Kenner five days per week and I was not able to connect the signal. It’s 2019, FM signal distortion still a problem. My word !

You mean you don’t enjoy country music popping in and out of your sports talk?

Heck that would be better than just static coming in and out.

They are replacing some of their transmission tower structure. Should be back sometime this week.

I like the station but at night the reception is low except for the commercials and public service announcements.

I love Freddie Coleman at night but I pick his show up from 104.9 when I get near Grammercy.

I'm curious to see what they do in the mornings. Innes is who he is, but while it was mostly a Houston show he did talk some about LA teams, had LA talk personalities on as guests, etc.

Salisbury is a great national host and a big win for Houston but he doesn't even realize I believe he was on in LA.

Now it's OTK live followed by OTK tape-delay which I like OTK live but I'd like a little more local show in the morning.

Gordy is meh.

Asher is terrible and I've grown to despise Katie's because of him.

D Squared is somewhere between Gordy and Asher.

Kaare is abysmal.

The nighttime Fox shows are hit or miss.

I do. Thankfully Innes was fired. Clay Travis has been on this week. Just leave him there and forget it.

Asher is ok but when he brings on the owner of Katie's it's unbearable. Just awful awful radio

Sure is taking them an awfully long time to repair this, so far almost twice as long as they said

Just listen to 1280 on the FM station. It was a pretty solid station from what I remember

Not thay big a deal. All of these stations have an app or website you can stream live from for free

Just curious is to why a majors city’s primary sports radio station is out for a half a month and counting. The repair job must be larger than expected
