17. The following are specifically related to Internet
contests and the E-Mail Club promotions on
WHMH, WMIN, WVAL, WBHR and WXYG.
a. All appropriate information in required fields must
be filled out correctly and completely or
you will be disqualified.
b. To win a prize you must reside within the listening
area of WHMH, WMIN, WVAL, WBHR
and WXYG as defined at the exclusive discretion of WHMH,
WMIN, WVAL, WBHR and WXYG
c. Any problems with the internet or email are not

WXYG’s responsibility.
d. Contestants who register to participate on our
website may be required to produce a printed
copy of proof of registration before being allowed to
participate in the contest.
e. Due to the nature of our programs that are heard
on-line over the internet, contests may not
be heard at all. Contests heard on the radio station’s
internet audio stream may be slightly
delayed from the time the contests are heard on the
broadcast station, and will be running
behind the broadcast signal. Thus, all contests heard
are delayed. This delay can last for as
much as 30 seconds or more. This means that when WHMH,
WMIN, WVAL, WBHR and
WXYG contests are played that require a specific caller
to telephone the radio station (such as
“Caller number 11 when you hear the sound effect”),
listeners to the on-line audio stream may
be at a disadvantage in participating over those
listeners who hear the contests on-air.
