Except for KYW and WIP-FMHD2, the only preset I have is "USB" for my iPod.

From the northern suburbs: I remember when I didn't have enough presets - now too many considering mostly listening on ipod or CD in the car now. This from a 'radio geek' who loves radio but at home listens via internet to all sorts of interesting stations elsewhere. Had Sirius & liked it but too expensive.

89.3 WRDV weekend classic country & oldies, 87.7 WDVR weekend country/bluegrass, 90.1 WRTI classical daytime, 91.5 ipod input 92.1 WVLT weekday daytime oldies only, 94.1 WIP Eagles play by play only, 96.1 WCTO Easton sometimes for country, 98.1 WOGL when not in disco mode & Sunday Beatles & Doo Wop, 99.5 WJBR Christmas music season only, 101.5 WKXW weekend classic hits only, 106.5 WTHJ ok signal from near LBI but better country selection than around here;

590 WARM when the signal comes in, 650 WSM at night, 830 WEEU Sunday 9 AM folk/bluegrass show only, 940 WADV southern gospel from Lebanon now not bad in car since WKDN turned off IBOC, 1440 WNPV now only for Penn State & high school football play by play, 1490 WBCB when playing classic country & 1520 when WCHE plays oldies or for WWKB Buffalo at night/pre sunrise


Rest of the time ipod which includes classic radio jingles taped years ago mixed with varied corresponding types of music.

My FM1 is mine, and FM2 is my wife's. I order them by frequency instead of by preference. We live in South Philly.

FM1: 88.5, 93.3, 94.1, 97.5. 102.9, 104.5
FM2: 94.5, 95.7, 96.5, 101.1, 102.1, 106.1
AM: 610, 660, 880, 1010, 1060, 1210

My wife listens to the radio all the time in the car. I almost never do. Almost always something from my phone (stream, podcast, audiobook). 1010 is static down in our parts, but we use AM so infrequently that it's worth having a preset for it for when we drive up to NY and want a quick traffic report. But we've stopped listening even to those with the advent of Waze.

 

[deepstblu]

In the Trenton market:

FM1: WXPN, WHYY, WMGK, Ben, WOGL, WIP-FM
FM2: WNJT, WPEN, B101, WWFM, 105.7 the Hawk, WMMR
AM: WIP, WFAN, WCBS, KYW, WPHT, WBCB

The last four FM2 buttons don't get hit much. KYW's signal is not good here but I'll listen to it when I drive south. WPHT is still there from two years ago when I used it for the Phillies; nothing has come along to replace it.

Stations that used to have presets but lost them, whether through format change or just losing interest:

WPEN 950 (as oldies and sports), WBUD (as oldies and sports), WHWH (as Radio Ted), 101.5, 94.5/97.5 the Hawk, WPST

Live & Work in Montco ----

FM1: 88.5, 90.1, 90.9, 92.5, 94.1, 96.1
FM2: 98.1, 100.3, 102.9, 103.9, 106.9, 107.5

XM1: 50s, 60s, 70s, Bluegrass Junction, Classic Vinyl, Bridge
XM2: Enlighten, Real Jazz, Siriusly Sinatra, SiriusXM Pops, NPRNow, Philly Traffic

OK, so I'm a bit eclectic

 

[Steve Green NEPA]

We're largely out of range here, being maybe eighty or a hundred miles north of you folks.

The little Topaz does have a pre-set to 1060, though. KYW comes in day and night quite well.
(Being a DXer, I arrange the buttons by frequency :- )

And on FM, we do have WRTI in the car, for nighttime jazz. Our reception comes in via the Pottsville translator on 99.1.
