Radio Roundup 2012: ATL Edition

W

wpb1999

I have seen this done on several other boards. What are your favorite radio stations? They can be national, local, and online.

Here are mine:

Local-
WYAY oldies
WSB Talk
WGST talk
WSTR Hot AC
WSB AC

National-
WKQC Charlotte
WINS NYC
KOST LA
KFI LA
WMGC Detroit *
KOMO Seattle *

Internet/HD:
Journey 97.9
iHeartRadio Smooth Jazz
"The River's Edge" WSRV-2
iHeartRadio Real Oldies
CBS Radio Network
ABC News on Slacker

Please share.
 
I'll play:

Atlanta-
WYAY oldies
WSB news/talk

Jacksonville (where I live now)-
WAPE CHR
Jack 107.3 oldies/whatever LOL
WOKV AM-FM news/talk

National-
1010 WINS NYC
WILN Island 106 Panama City FL
Y100 Miami

Internet/HD:
KickRadio
 
Me too, I'll play also.

Local:
WYAY FM 106.7 Classic Hits (Three in a row for that so far)

Internet Streaming/HD:
WBBQ FM in Augusta, GA
WYXB FM in Indianapolis, IN
WLQT FM in Dayton, OH
iHeartRadio Easy Listening and Soft Rock
 
Outside of the music, what do you all like about AGH 106.7?

The imaging is terrible. I will say, though, they are/were just a really good jingle package away from sounding a lot better.

For the record, here are my stations:

Atlanta-
WSTR Hot AC
WUBL Country

National-
WRLT Nashville
 
In Town:
98.9 (Alternative)
100.5 (Classic Rock)
92.9 (AAA)
97.1 (Classic Hits/rock)
96.1 (Active)

Top Stations Across the Country (I'm Rock Bias)

93.5 Rock (Columbia SC - Active/Alternative Hybrid)
Rock 106.1 (Savannah- Active Rock)
Radio 104.5 (Philly - Alternative)
Q104.3 (New York - Classic Rock)
KZ106 (Chattanooga - Classic Rock)

Internet/Streaming Phone

Got Radio - Alternative
977 Music - Alternative (technically alternative/active hybrid)
977 Music - Classic Rock (though I'm mad because they edit the songs to shorten them)

With me, it's all about the playlist. The lower number if songs on the playlist, the less likely I will like it.
 
Local: WVEE "V-103" (full service urban)

National:
WPGC 95.5 Washington DC (CHRurban)
KPRS "Hot 103 Jamz" Kansas City (full-service urban)
KMEL "106 KMEL" San Francisco (mainstream urban)
WDKX 106.3 Rochester, NY (full-service urban)
WBLK "93.7 WBLK" Buffalo, NY (full-service urban)

I'm so not a fan of spliced urban formatted stations like "urban adult contemporary", "urban gospel", and "mainstream urban". I prefer my urban stations to be full-service and dayparted.
