Yo 95.1 VS Classic Hits 96.9 VS 102.7 JackFM

I guess you could say these three stations overlap their formats a little.
Yo 95.1 plays classic hip-hop with a little 90's disco mixed in. It's pretty cool, reminds me of how The Beat used to sound, as they play old Beat tracks. http://www.myyo951.com/
Classic Hits 96.9 plays mainly 80's and 90's rhythmic AC with some classic hip-hop and other party tracks. This station has a very upbeat feel, I would say it's a cross between 102.7 and 95.1. http://classichits969.com/index.html
102.7 JackFM has been around for a while. They play rhythmic AC as 96.9 does, classic rock like 106.7, and a few newer tracks that you might also hear on 105.3. They're the only one of the three you won't find in TuneIn. http://www.hellojack.com/

Which do you guys like the most?
 
Jack, hands down. Although I prefer Dallas version of Jack better than San Antonio's. SA Jack sounds a lot like KTFM did in the 80s on the same frequency, so that's kind of neat. I just like 100-3 better because it'll throw in a curveball and play something from Sinatra or Johnny Cash. KJKK really does play anything. SA Jack tends to play 80s pop mostly, some classic rock, and a few things sprinkled in from this century.
 
My favorite of the three is Yo 95.1 it does remind me of the old 98.5 The Beat, which used to by my favorite station back when they first began. The DJ's are really fun to listen too and they've got good contest too. I think they were giving away an old school boom box a few weeks ago and that kept me listening cause I wanted to win. I also like 96.9 although it's difficult to pick up in some areas, they have a nice playlist of rhythmic oldies from the 80's and 90's.

Jack FM don't listen to it to much, but they play a lot of stuff that isn't necessarily played on the radio anymore or tracks that weren't exactly top 40 hits. Sometimes however they play the exact same songs you'd here on KONO 101.1 or 106.7 The Eagle. Anyway Yo 95.1 is my favorite of the three.
 
Well my favorite would have to be Yo 95, I grew up with hip-hop. The upbeat personality of the station makes me want to listen more as well, maybe they should try to get Xavier back to bring back old memories? I never win anything on the radio though.

96.9 and 102.7 tie for second. I like the variety on Jack but I'm not too much into the 80's classic rock they seem to play a lot of. Still it isn't bad. The main thing not going for Classic Hits 96 is it's weak signal, but then again I can listen to it online.
