The first one does indeed sound close to the horrendous recording WRIF plays, although I'd say the WRIF version sounds worse yet since their audio settings artificially speed up the song. Not only that, but I've learned to recognize when other stations use the same shitty processor as WRIF.....It a...

Another 'Bizkit fan here - got me through my angsty teen years.

I'm pretty sure Durst's image these days is very much on purpose. His whole act is all about being old and washed up. Couldn't have marketed it better! It's working (you guys are talking about it )

I'd go see them live these days

The repetition on pretty much all of the sirius channels is just as bad these days - with a virtually limitless library of music, there should be no reason to hear the same song twice in 3hrs, let alone twice in 24 hrs....

I Can only stand to subscribe for 6mos on, 6mos off.

I just randomly turned on wdzh

Well, I took a pic...but apparently no uploads here?

Anyhow here's a link.

Streaming ABC 7/NBC 2's coverage at the moment. They're doing a very good job IMO. My mom has a distant cousin who lives in Lee County, and the word a county official used to describe the likely state in that area is "decimated." Hoping he made it through safely and still has a home, as it's obviou...

I've had WFTX Fox4 Ft Myers on in the background most of the day. Been kind of interesting. Seems like they had their first crew on for about 12hrs straight. Do they take their bathroom breaks during press conferences? LOL For having what seems like pretty limited resources (unreliable power, commun...

The other thing that bugs the shit out of me regarding the 5a 5G Pixel is that it was marketed as unlocked phone that is compatible with all major cellular networks in the United States. Guess what? Can't use it with Verizon or any of Verizon's MVNOs. The IMEI number is not recognized. Supposedly, ...

I have receivers that cover the CB band, but I never hear any activity around here. CH20 is kind of comedic. Has kind of a "grumpy old men" type thing going on. One guy in Garden city and another in southfield that hate each other constantly going on and on :) If you listen long enough you'll get b...

I don't believe there's a "hangout" channel per SE, but there are a few GMRS repeaters in the area (although you have to be licensed to use them. I've keyed up on the troy repeater a few times much to the dismay of the repeater owner )

They try to use pl tones which are easily defeated

Released a few months ago, this is the first (and so far only) CB rig on the U.S. market for FM transmission under the new FCC guidelines. Depending on the success of this model, it will be interesting to see what additional manufacturers like Cobra come up with to follow suit. Are you (or anyone e...

Like many FM radio geeks in the 90's, I would frequently DX from my portable walkman radio while we as a family traveled up north to Mackinaw City. I recall that there was a website for FM coverage. It has been about 15 years since I had visited that site. Does anyone remember what it is? I could h...

I loved Z-rock as a kid (where I Could hear it). When K-rock was on 97.1, it kind of reminded me of a "Fresher" Z-rock (and I loved it)

WUOM is definitely a blowtorch. It covers a significant chunk of the lower peninsula from Dexter. The *only* allure behind W4 as a non-country listener is that they do provide a lot of local news and weather, even for communities out in Lenawee county - The station is much more focused on the 'in be...
