Dear Mr. Burns,
The manufacturer of your radio installed a feature on it called a "tuner" or more commonly known as a channel changer. This feature allows the radio owner to change a channel if he or she doesn't care for what they are hearing on any given channel. It's a quite useful feature, you should try it.

Could you play more music for guys who like Teddy Bears?

This is a bi-polar station. It has so much potential, but has just never been able to come out of the "closet". It has a huge signal, but it honestly is one of, if not the most boring stations during the week. The only time that I listen is when they do the ocassional theme weekends. But you know that is only temporary, Just do not know why they can play more of the songs they did during the Valentine weekend.

Dear Mr. Bear,

Your thoughtful insight into this issue is greatly appreciated. Indeed, I have utilized this device known as channel changer many times. In one instance, I utilized this device to ascertain the 106.7 FM frequency, only to hear Rodney Atkins "Cleaning My Gun" 475 times a day. On another occasion, I utilized the channel changer to reach 107.9 FM, only to hear Keiko Matsui every three minutes. I also utilized this channel changer to access 99.7 FM, and much to my chagrin this signal was stuck on a continuous playing of Fergie "Clumsy."

Again, I value any further feedback and advice that you may have on this vital issue.

Kind Regards,

Itburnswhenipee

Itburns: Buy an i-pod. Your life will be much happier.

BRENT: For a station that is boring and bi-polar, they sure have some huge ratings and revenue.

B98 isn't gay. Q100 is.

You can also get an "HD Radio" with a tuner. You see there's these "hidden stations between the stations". I do not have an HD radio, however I have heard ads stating that this is so.

".....Here's The Thing, We Started Out As Friends....." (Repeat 17 times)

The least they can do is play Weird Al Yankovic's version:

Since you've been gone
Well, I feel like I've been chewing on tinfoil
Since you've been gone
It's like I got a great big mouthful of cod liver oil
Oh well, I'm feelin like I stuck my hand
Inside a blender and turned it on
You know, I've been in a buttload of pain
Since you've been gone

(Since you've been gone)
I couldn't feel any worse if you dropped
A two-ton bowling ball on my toes
(Since you've been gone)
It couldn't hurt any more if you shoved
A red-hot cactus up my nose

Since you've been gone
Well, it feels like I'm getting tetanus shots every day
Since you've been gone
It's like I've got an ice cream headache that won't go away
Ever since that day you left me
I've been so miserable, my dear
I feel almost as bad as I did
When you were still here

Yes, because it is the only thing close in Atl to being semi oldies..

 

[actuallyinatlantaradio]

Brent, seriously, get a life.

Buy an iPod, dump your 500 favorite oldies on it and play it to your heart's content.

Oh, and B98.5 is certainly NOT the closest thing to oldies in Atlanta...

Just remember, there are different variations of Oldies as there are different variations of CHR, Urban, and Spanish.

Oldies Stations in Atlanta:

Kiss 104.1 Urban Oldies

B98.5 Gold Based AC

97.1 The River Classic Rock

Rock 100.5 Classic Rock

As much as I agree with itburns regarding Kelly Clarkson, I agree with BearFur as well. Plus, why waste a thread to tell a PD not to play a particular song? Just call or e-mail him or her about your concerns.
