[edit] Howard 100 Logo

Has anyone come across a Sirius-created logo that is specific to the Howard 100 channel? The fist logo we're using now is just a generic Howard logo, and the only logo I've found that actually says "Howard 100" on it is the H100 News logo, which isn't really meant to represent the channel as a whole either. --Aaron 23:14, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] There is a Howard 100 logo

It's located here - http://www.sirius.com/servlet/ContentServer?pagename=Sirius/CachedPage&c=Page&cid=1107787276524 - but it's not really a good one. I'm fine with the fist. --Tv's emory 21:29, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

Ugh, that's awful. I agree, let's keep the fist until they come up with something better. Thanks, Emory. --Aaron 18:54, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
Well, the fist is the official Howard 100/101 logo.

[edit] Link to Howard 100 Audio

Please place any discussion regarding the Howard 100 Dress Rehearsal audio clip to Talk:Howard_Stern because that is where the discussion is currently active. Misterrick 23:51, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Danny Bonaduce

On the Howard 100 page it states that a Danny Bonduce radio show is in development, However I cannot find any website that made an official announcement or sites with rumors supporting this, So unless someone can provide a link or some source to back this statement I am going to remove it. Misterrick 18:13, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

Sorry my bad, Sirius is now promoting Danny Bonaduce on Howard 100. Put him in the schedule. Misterrick 20:53, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Third Channel?

The article says it would be 102 and quotes Stern that he can change that whenever he wants (not referenced). However, currently channel 99 is empty. If a third channel is added, wouldn't adding 99 be a good option instead of rearranging the lineup with 102? I'm not trying to predict the future or Sirius' thinking. I was just thinking we remove explicit references to 102 being the definite channel when it could be 99. Thoughts? Bark 17:10, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

Seems reasonable. I wouldn't make any references to 99 in the article though, as this is the first I've heard of it. It is established that he has the option of adding a third channel. We could leave it at that. Foday 08:43, 8 June 2006 (UTC)
Agreed. I wouldn't want to mention any specific channel number until something official comes done. Interesting note: The poll on sternuncensored.com has listeners wanting a third channel for the WXRK material at this point in time. Bark 13:39, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Rename article "Howard 100 and Howard 101"?

Just a suggestion, as Howard 101 has more different shows than Howard 100 and is prominent in this article. Foday 08:23, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

Eh, I don't have a preference either way. If you do that though, the "Howard 100" article needs to be copied to "Howard 100 & 101" (or whatever the name will be). Then, "Howard 100" needs to redirect there. Finally, "Howard 101" would need to redirect to the new article too. Bark 12:56, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Staff Help Offer

I notice a quite a few things here that are pretty off the mark. I've corrected a few though I don't have time to go through it all. If anyone wants to take the time to go through and fix things I don't mind answering specific questions if emailed to me.

Send to SKIPPY@nyc.rr.com

I know most answers and if I don't know something I should be able to find out. I would like to see this article maintain accurate information.

[edit] Changed "Trivia" to "Notable Firsts"

I changed to trivia section to notable firsts because of Wikipedia's guideline discouraging Trivia sections. (They tend to attract questionable additions.) However, since both items were firsts , I renamed the section. Hopefully, that will keep additions to relevent and worthy material. --Bark 13:57, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
