What is on you car stereo presets?

Bored at work and was thinking about this today. Could be an interesting thread.

1 - 100.5 WTFX: "the Fox" - Modern rock sprinkled with some classic rock
2 - 105.9 WLRS: "the Walrus" - Modern/Alternative Rock
3 - 95.7 WQMF: "the Weasel" - Classic Rock
4 - 107.7 WSFR: - Classic Rock
5 - 102.3 "the Max" - new station, plays anything that is popular '80s on up
6 - 88.1 - Local High School radio station. All request all the time. No commercials. Not uncommon to go from Metallica to Elvis to Britney to Willie Nelson. Makes it interesting.

I'm not really sure, since I rarely listen to the radio in my car (or elsewhere, for that matter). Mainly CDs for me.

I ditched Howard Stern for Glenn Beck many moons ago, so two of my presets are 610 AM (talk radio) and 99.7 FM "The Blitz" (rock station and Stern's affiliate in Columbus). Rarely will I listen to music on the radio, but if I do it is tuned to CD 101.1 FM - an alternative station with a decent playlist. I know that I have others preset, but for the life of me I can't think of what they are.

Radio? RADIO? WHAT? I'm shrink into self embarassment to listen to the radio. It's like looking over at another guy when you're peeing.

Nothing. 2 cars, 2 radio alarm clocks, 3 stereos. Absolutely no presets on any of them. I don't listen to the radio.

The two NPR stations in the area, and the CBC out of Windsor, all of which I listen to off and on. The rest of the stations in the Detroit area are utter garbage.

I would do that XM thing, if I spent more than 30 minutes to an hour in my car a day. Big waste of money if you don't commute a decent amount of time during the day.


"Rock" 101.1 - Classic Rock.

I listen to The John Boy And Billy Big Show on the way to school in the morning. They have 16 song music marathons and they have to play 16 songs straight or you can win money...blah blah blah.

"My" 102.5 - Lite Rock.

When Rock 101 doesn't have anything on. I like when they play the 70s-80s lite rock songs. Shit like N sync or that 90s pop crap gets an automatic channel switch.

"The Whistle" 100.5, "Kiss" 99.9, "Double U, Eeee, Ssss, Ccc" 92.5 - Country

Long live the south. I like 92.5, cause they are required to play some "real" old country music along with the new junk.

106.7 (I think) - Oldies

exactly. I would love to pick either service up (Sirius has contracted our college hoops team games recently), but my commute to work and home is about 7 minutes. 15 in heavy traffic. Not worth it.
