Is a busy signal normal when trying to call in to a radio show?

Answer 1

Oh no not at all...they have hundreds of phones lines and only like three people are calling lol

Answer 2

Yes. Most radio personalities don't want to talk to the peole who listen to their shows, and only answer when they HAVE to!

Radio songs are programmed according to national trends - not listener calls, so what difference does it make to the DJ if you call or not?

Seriously... most radio personalities would rather do nothing than answer the phone.

Answer 3

Oh yea, definately!! Most radio stations are so busy with other people calling in, requesting songs. Keep trying (unless it's long distance) and you will get through one way or another.

Answer 4

the only reason a busy signal is operated is so they dont get flooded with prank callers or people calling into be stupid. Also it gives people a open chance to ring a competition line with no doubt of it being 'setup'.

Answer 5

Yes, Especially if it's a popular station. There is almost always someone else trying to call in too, which is why you will need to try calling several times before you will actually succeed.
