i have the Sonos speakers in my house and enjoy listening to radio stations still. So I'm curious to see what you all listen too as I'm looking for some new stations to listen too as well.
like listening to alternative rock and classic rock mostly, don't mind new rock stuff or soemthing with an edge to it anyways. Great morning shows or drive home shows are always great. I get the stations thru Tune In,
so what stations do you recommend I give a listen too?

Interesting, I just two minutes ago wrote this on another forum:
"For me great radio ended a long time ago, around the time in the early 70's when KSAN-FM went from being a fantastic community, independent, and very hip "underground" station to becoming a commercial country station. I used to stay up late and listen to the Abe "Voco" Kesh show that started at midnight and always opened with Harvey Mandel's "Light's Out". So cool!
I could go on but somewhere in the back of my head I will hear my wife saying, "Brian, you're sounding like an old man again." OH? OH NO!"
So yeah, sadly I no longer listen to radio. In all honestly, part of the problem is where I live. Decades ago the big powerful station would reach the foothills where I now live. No longer and I don't/can't/won't stream. I hope some of you are finding good stuff on the airwaves out there.

I rarely listen to regular radio anymore since I have Sirius, but when I do it's always 93.1 WXRT in Chicago. Classic rock and new stuff....they play all sorts of stuff. Awesome radio station.0

I listen to The Zone and The Q whilst driving. Both are rock, first is modern/alternative, the second is classic. Usually not overwhelmed with ads.

I use Sirius, usually Lithium channel, when I'm in my truck. When I'm driving my wife's car, I listen to 99.7 out of Columbia for music and 107.5 for local sports talk radio. 99.7 is a pretty decent rock radio station and plays a good mix of old and new music.

i listen to the same old rock station I grew up with.. KLOS (Los Angeles) It is 955klos.com. The morning show makes me laugh and they have some good segments on it.. Also. Jonesy's Jukebox is AWESOME .. comes on at 12:00 p.m. Pacific Time.
So I'll just lie down and wait for the dream

I just found 99.7 about a month ago. In general I like it but they need a bigger playlist. I hear the same songs over and over and I'm not even in my car all that much. I'd like 99.3 a lot better if the signal was stronger and if they'd stop playing artists like John Mayer and Adele.markymark550 said:I use Sirius, usually Lithium channel, when I'm in my truck.

I like news/talk radio sometimes. Good way to get deeper insights into local issues - Vancouver's best news/talk station is CKNW. I don't listen to music on the radio anymore. I just use Spotify. There is a small part of me that feels like I ought to listen to local radio stations just to help keep the industry afloat... but fuck that, because they don't bother to make radio good anymore as far as the music goes. It's just the same songs played over and over, and no real substance. The main rock station in my area is CFOX, and for a rock station they are okay, but they still play repeats way too much and almost never play any deep cuts or anything, and mostly just pump out mass consumer stuff, so screw them. They deserve to fail if they aren't willing to be creative and to actually contribute to the overall music scene by introducing more artists and informing the public about all the music that isn't mass marketed.

I love radio. I listen to DC stations
98.7 FM in morning with Bobby Bones Show and country music
570 AM to hear Baltimore Orioles games
94.7 FM pop music was my go to until 2015 when I started to listen more to country music
90.9 is classical music if I need sound, but music with lyrics are distracting
101.1 Alternative rock that I listen to sometimesThere is no such thing as leftover pizza. There is now pizza and later pizza. - anonymous

Thanks again for some more stations. I guess I'm one of those people that is just getting old and radio is on the way out. Starting to sound like my parents lol. I still enjoy radio as, but as someone stated above, besides the repeats during the day, radio is still ok in my books.
