    Chicago has had garbage for years.  A new one 95.5 started so we will see.

    Ed's favorite Q101 is long gone, the Loop was our last great rock station, and it is gone now too.  

    May as well stream if living in Chicagoland

    No love for XRT???  That's a Chicago classic!  101.1 is still around with same alternative style format but they don't call it Q101 for some reason.  Didn't even know about this new 95.5 station.  But yeah, I pretty much only listen to Sirius in my car.

    97.7 The Other Side of the River in Atlanta 

    no commercials, no djs, just alternative rock from 80s, 90s, and sometimes early aughts.

    I can hear the following: Last Goodbye/Jeff Buckley, Feel the Pain/Dinosaur Jr., XTC, INXS, Presidents of the USA, In Your Eyes/ Gabriel (live 10 minute version), Pumpkins, Tori Amos, Veruca Salt, the list goes on.

    Pearl Jam: in addition to the hits, I’ve heard SOLAT and Garden plenty of times.

    It’s a constant education for my son. He’s always asking what the songs are. They do a good job of avoiding a playlist and I’m constantly hearing different stuff.

    90.9 The Bridge here in KC. 

    Great station & a really good mix of songs. Different genres & eras + lots of great local content. Very few commercials as well.
    I LOVE MUSIC.

    WFUV totally independent no commercials and the variety is well rounded! They transmit out of Fordham college in the Bronx! Never ever play glam rock or shitty pop or mainstream country

    KISW out of Seattle.  The signal just makes it to Victoria, BC.   It's the perfect mix of Hard Rock music.  Always loved that station.

    I do miss the days where cable tv companies would put FM signals on cable, so you could split the cable line to your home audio receiver and get all the radio stations crystal clear.   KISW is just far enough away that it can ebb and low in quality.    I do often stream it using a VPN :)

    90.9 The Bridge here in Kansas City. I've been listening to this station for years - even before we moved to KC. They have an app so you can stream it all the time.
