CLEAR CHANNEL Top 40 KHKS (KISS 106.1)/DALLAS PD PATRICK DAVIS has tapped KNGY (ENERGY 92.7)/SAN FRANCISCO afternooner JEFF MILES as his new midday personality beginning APRIL 4th.

Jeff Miles just joined KNGY back in January of this year. He had left WWWQ in Atlanta to come to San Francisco, and now he's going?! He was actually pretty good. I guess the other station wants him even more.

We'll find out the details soon.

I like Jeff Miles. I remember him when he worked for WBTS in Atlanta and later on to Q100 there.

Isn't the Party a dance station? To be honest, even in a place like San Francisco, I don't see much of a future with dance music. Maybe he saw the writing on the wall, or the price of living there is so high, he had no choice but to move.

Party ended last April. It changed to Energy after a brief stint as Power.

The signal of the station was really weak, so not too many people could get it. And even if they could, there wasn't that many people that are fans of the dance genre. In the 5 and a half months Energy has been on, they have made more progress than Party did in its 23 month run.

But it's true, the cost of living is very high in San Francisco. But maybe the offer that Clear Channel was giving might have been much better than what Flying Bear Media was giving.

The station is decent in comparison to other stations that are out there, but a lot still needs to be done in order to make it better. I heard a rumor that internet streaming of Energy might begin within the next two months. Whether or not it happens, it could help, but it's not enough.

He's gone. He wasn't on the show today.
