| IT LAUNCHED amid a blaze of publicity and a brash promise to be ''in your face'' and ''right wing''. But after a year-and-a-half on air, MTR is facing the chop.
At best, the talkback station will keep its name but undergo a massive revamp. At worst, it will revert to an ''easy listening'' music format.
In the latest ratings survey, MTR finished second-last, with just 2 per cent of Melbourne's audience. The station has been plagued by problems, including a weak signal and listeners' loyalty to the top-rating 3AW.
