Cooperstown Can Have
It All – Classical Music,
Talk Radio – On WSKG
To the Editor:
WSKG, the only classical music station accessible to Cooperstown listeners, has recently changed to a new all-talk format on both its frequencies (91.7 and 105.9). This constitutes a real loss for our community, where classical music has a strong cultural and economic presence: witness the Glimmerglass Festival and the Cooperstown Summer Music Festival.
But all is not lost! WSKG operates a partner station, “WSKG Classical,” under the call letters WSQX. Though WSQX is not available in Cooperstown, WSKG could restore classical music to its Cooperstown listeners and supporters by broadcasting classical music content from WSQX on its 105.9 Cooperstown frequency, while continuing its new talk format on its 91.7 frequency.
