Hi Bob!

I just see a trend, Bob, not picking on WTTR, it's just "other" stations, I feel, "earn" money from the CDs they play (may be why the limited variety of music!). Those stations often encourage you to visit their web sites. Radio is one big struggle - from ABC to CBS - HAS to offer (money, vacations, etc.) rewards to capture listeners! Around here, I'm amazed, a privately owned station can outdo the mega sized CBS. If there's a will, there's a way. But watching CBS, and when they sniff more profits (from competition), they'll DROP the Music and bring on the Talk!

On another subject, Bob, I enjoy scanning the AM radio band, from my car, to see who's out there. You CAN'T beat AM radio transmission. I was listening to WWL-AM (870 kHz), located in New Orleans, last night!

Thanks, Bob!

Best,
John
