I have been falling asleep to WSM (650 AM) lately listening to the classics show that starts at midnight. They play lots of old time twangy stuff which I love. Last night (12/6/2020) they were playing prison songs. Most of the time I have have never heard the songs before. Give it a listen if you love real Americana and not the ersatz crap played on all of the other commercial country stations
I use a Sangean HDR-14 and it is a phenomenal receiver for its size.

I think you might be referring to Jeff Hoag's program. He's on weeknights from 8:00 PM to 1:00 AM. Mostly plays old classic country..
I have seven Sangean radios. Four here and Three in Florida. They're all great.
I started out with nothing and I still have most of it.
Re: WSM midnight classics show
I recently bought the Sangean HDR-14 and a HDR-16 and have been amazed by their performance. On the other hand I have not bought a new MW receiver since about 1995 when I got a Grundig YB 400 about 1995 and a Sony ICF-S5w in 1980 so it is hard for me to compare radios. Thinking about getting a Sangean HDT-20 and hooking it up to a crossed dipole for FM and my DX Engineering RF-PRO-1B active loop.Turkeytop wrote: ↑Tue Dec 08, 2020 9:59 pmn8fnr wrote: ↑Tue Dec 08, 2020 9:43 pmI have been falling asleep to WSM (650 AM) lately listening to the classics show that starts at midnight.

Re: WSM classics show at midnight
In my morning commute, I usually listen to WNZK's "Motown and a cup-O-Joe" show, often flipping to WWJ at the hour, for the news, then going back to WNZK.
But this time of year, I'll press the preset button for WSM, especially if WNZK is getting too much interference, or plays a ten-minute EP disc that repeats the same guitar riff for eight minutes (most likely on Friday).
Of course, WSM is not available in the morning commute all year, typically disappearing in late February.
