Is there a decent FM radio station in DFW?

[mardyn]

I have not listened to much FM radio in the past 25 years or so... it was bad back then, and apparently not much has changed now.

I dialed up some FM this morning at 7AMish on my daily exercise routine, went through all the local presets about 10 times and all I heard was moronic DJs trying to be funny or extended blocks of commercials... very little music on any of the stations.

I know it's drive time, and commercials pay the bills... but it's 10 minutes of Bullshit for every 5 minutes of actual music. My old ass can't hang.

I have done some I Heart Radio and Pandora (which is a little better), but generally don't want to carry my heavy ass iphone while I'm exercising.

I guess I'm going back to my same 500 or so songs saved on my MP3 player that I've been listening to for the past 10 years.

What are y'all listening to these days?

92.5 if I have to. I havent listened to radio in a while, is Jack still without a morning show?

[GeorgeG.]

For morning radio, that's going to be it really. The iPhone can't e THAT heavy.

[Jewrrick]

102.1 in the mornings is what I listen to if I am listening to FM.

92.5 / 98.7 KLUV

All FM radio stations are commercial heavy depending on the time of day, but some are better than others. Even Sirius will have commercials from time to time and it's subscription radio.

Commercial free blocks on KLUV are usually between 8am - 11 , 1pm - 2 and after 8pm.

I listen to 97.1 in the mornings because its not a talk radio like the other stations. If you can get past Cindy Skull's man voice its not too bad.

I channel flip regularly when listening to FM radio. I do like talk shows though, so in the morning that's what I am typically looking for.

95.9 the Ranch.

For radio I listen almost exclusively to 96.7 The Ticket as I got tired of all the same songs over and over with commercials.
