Ability to Sync Station At or Near Top of Hour

6 votes

After a song ends after the top of an hour, the station starts the clockwheel over regardless of location. The first element in the clockwheel then begins to play, ad block, ID, or music.

For example, if my song ends at 2:01:35, instead of going to the next item in the clockwheel, the Auto DJ returns to the beginning of the clockwheel and starts the new hour. Rinse and repeat. I used to play Legal ID's on my station, but stopped once I noticed they would often fire off anywhere from 20 mins past the hour to 20 mins to the next one. This feature would ad structure to our stations.

Broadcasters that want it could also have the option to "hard sync" or have the clockwheel or a scheduled event start exactly at a specified time, such as 2:00pm. This feature is currently available but only for scheduled programs.
