My favorite radio station is still a local AM station that plays oldies and has local news and weather. A couple years back, they added an FM simulcast, but in our area, the AM reception is better. I have seen articles where some of the auto manufacturers are planning to eliminate AM from new vehicles.
Speaking of oldies, we recently (May 23) travelled to New Jersey (Met Life Stadium) to see the Rolling Stones. The tickets were a Christmas present from my wife (who says I have everything and am impossible to buy for). Mick, Keith and the gang still put on a great show. Brought back a lot of memories from the 70's! |

There is a station call "The Gamut" that I first found locally on FM, then I found it could be heard online. They lost their FM channel and now I get it on AM-HD. I've seen Johnny Cash perform at the local fair in the early 60s when it was a free show. The stage was a flat trailer beside a van trailer with one side opened up. He was so out of it he didn't even know what planet he was on and nearly fell of the stage. But when he started to play he nailed it. I still can see the show in my memory. I also saw Paul Revere and the Raiders do a free show on the steel pier at Atlantic City. That was before their wild getups, when they still wore Suits to perform ------------- If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere. Real pullers don't have speed limits.

I listen to the AM station online, too, on Tune In. I can also listen to it on my Amazon Echo (Alexa). I simply say, "Alexa play WMSA" and it comes in crystal clear. I also listen to a Burlington Vermont country radio station that I really like but we are a little too far away to get over the air, by saying "Alexa play WOKO".

Do you remember when you could understand the words to the music? Wife and I mostly watch movies from the 1930's to 1960's. She likes Elvis music and I listen to a lot of 1940's and 50's music when I am driving. The place where I get my hair cut plays what they call country music and mostly sounds the same with the same thumping beat. Certainly not like the old time country. There is a Willie Nelson station on Sirius radio that plays only old country, listen to that too. Years ago we saw Willie entertain at a big electric co-op doings. Since everyone there really enjoyed his show he played long after his alloted time was over. Great show.

We have satellite radio in one of our vehicles, usually it’s on ‘80’s on 8’ or ‘classic rewind’ or ‘classic vinyl’. Wifey will constantly hop between those three all day long while driving. If we are together in the car for 3 hours, I’ll bet she changes the channel 100 times. If I’m in a that car alone, I’ll either put on ‘deep tracks’ or maybe ‘Pearl Jam’, ‘Ozzy’s Playhouse’, or pop in a Pink Floyd or Led Zeppelin cd, and listen for hours. ------------- I tried to follow the science, but it was not there. I then followed the money, and that’s where I found the science. |

The rule with my wife and I is: THE DRIVER controls the radio. Back when I was dating I would take a channel surfer home early and possibly never call here again. That is one annoying habit that I can't stand. ------------- If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere. Real pullers don't have speed limits.
