Man I'm envious, our local jazz station turned into a variety station a few years ago, and it's not as good. Our local classical station is almost always playing NPR when I tune in. Everything else is crappy commercial butt rock, crappy commercial pop, or christofash talk radio. I have to use internet radio if I want to hear good music, and even then, most of those stations play ads.

That sucks! Genuinely evil. Can't believe they'd do that to the jazz station

One of the first stations I randomly hit was some christofash talk show. The connection was really bad. They were doing a hymn but it was veiled in static. Hell of an audio experience. Sounded like a broadcast at the end of the world. And then they just started talking. Sad!

Honestly most of the stations here are still christian music or talk radio. Its amazing how many one area can sustain.

Where but for the grace of college students broadcasting weird music go I. They're playing hurdy gurdy instrumental music rn.

I know! I miss being able to press a button and instantly hear jazz. Now I have to press a button while I have a Wi-Fi connection to get instant jazz, and that's just a smooth jazz internet radio station. I miss my jazz fusion.
