"102 Zoo" Flips To "Magic Oldies 102.5"
Misc. Ohio: While Pittsburgh is welcoming back CHR "B-94" to the dial, Ashtabula, Ohio has lost their Top 40 outlet. "102 ZOO" (WZOO) is no more, The station is playing a weekend full of songs with "Magic" in the name for the new "Magic Oldies 102.5" with hits from the 60's & 70's. They will officially go live with the format on Monday @ 6am. There was rumors that "Media One" would flip one of their new stations in the Ashtabula market. This could create some competition for sister station "Star 97.1" WREO. Unfortunately for Erie residents without an FM Oldies station, The new station will not come in because of "Z-102.3" being right next to 102.5. Maybe the folks at Media One could look into using their Erie 96.7 Translator CP for coverage in Erie. Meanwhile, Top 40 fans can tune into "Star 104" or possibly one of the Cleveland or Youngstown stations.Readers’ Forum

This is bull. I hate magic oldies. It’s the stupidest thing ever. Nobody is gonna listen to old sh-t. How about we live in the present? 102.5 finally got good.. then it’s ruined.

Thank you for bringing back our oldies!!! When Erie dropped Froggy for “Bob” there were no more oldies stations for us boomers. Thank you 102.5!!!

Wow, I was really loving when 102 zoo played a lot more rap than rock music and just all the music that teens love and not only teens but adults too. 102 zoo used to be known as the “Party Station” & NOW IT’S MAGIC OLDIES?! wtf??? You guys let me down, pop in a record if you want to hear some oldies!!! :)
