Nice set, all in all.

Yes, 'nice' is a good word.  Nice but uninspiring.

I also prefer her "Tune #10, time's up" better than AL's "Game Over" & her other ending sound that sounds like tubas going flat.

AL's various "set-ending" sounders all pretty much disappeared after a while.  And I didn't miss them when they did. This one isn't bad but again, all these new sounders, using the current KFOG male and female promotional voices, sound like they were recorded at the end of the day when everybody was really tired.

The one Renee's been using this week strikes me a just taking the script that Dave had for Don Pardo's ending sounder ("That's tune number 10, and our time is up!"), shortening it and adding a couple of contractions and rerecording it with a generic female voice. Kind of cheapens it a little, imo. But then, how can one compete with Don Pardo?
Let's get right to it.
