Radio Stations That Play The National Anthem At 12 Noon

[DToTheJ]

There's actually several of them that I know that either currently or previously play the National Anthem at 12 noon local time.

I was kinda caught off guard today when I listened to KOOL-FM in Phoenix online, and at 3 PM local time, heard Old Glory.

I recall from frequent trips to Florida that many stations there (usually country stations, naturally) played the Anthem at noon, such as WQYK in Tampa and WIKX in Charlotte Harbor.

What other radio stations carry this practice?

Not sure if they still do it but WJIB 740 Cambridge MA ("Easy as the breeze") has played a rendition
of the national anthem played on a piano

107.? in Albuquerque does the National Anthem at 12:00 noon... The format is country - I do not know if they bacame a Clear Channel Station... But still the station is raising the flag there.

This is a new one on me---never heard of a station playing The National Anthem at noon. And I live in the southeast where such a thing might have been expected.

KTTS in Springfield, MO plays the National Anthem everyday at noon or right before. They've done it for years. It's one of the only things that's carried over from the days of Great Empire Broadcasting.

107 on Albuquerque has done it since 9/11. ;D

I heard it driving through Sanford, NC the other day a couple minutes after noon and right before a newscast.
I think it was 1050 WWGP (?) I heard it on.

WOKQ 97.5 Dover, NH and sister WPKQ 103.7 Conway, NH play it at noon - or at least they did as of my last visit a couple of months ago. They'd been doing it since at least 9/11/01.
