as of january 3rd, 2006, KROCK will also be a talk channel. 92.3 KTALK if you will. David Lee Roth is taking over for howard stern here in the NY area, adam carolla will be taking on his duties in a different region and a few others have stepped up to the plate. The program that follows howard on krock is 100% music, so julie slater is gonna get fired as a result of the format change. Booker, if he plays his cards right, will still be at krock, but might switch times. Ben harvey, dead air dave, and all the other dj's are most likely gonna get fired. Dani might stick around because she is more involved with the booker show these days.

as you can tell, I listen to krock all day :wink: , and today this is all they were talking about. Julie Slater was on the stern show when she found out the news and started to cry. Infinity broadcasting has definitly ruined more than a handfull of people's lives today :(

there is only one radio staion in teh philly area that i can listen to any time of day. 95.7 WBEN, Ben FM.
they play a wide variety of music, not always a good thing, but it beats the hell otu of stupid talk shows all morning and stations that only play 25-20 songs all day.

I usually listen to 101.1 (B101) when I'm in the area...while it doesn't play rock, it still plays a good variety of songs, and you rarely hear the same song within a work day.

Up here I have PLJ (95.5) that I mostly listen to. Plays a good variety as well, and I like the talk in the morning.

thats ********, when im back home what i always listened to was 93.3 94.1 100.7 100.3 and 102.1, so that leaves as the good rock stations 93.3 and 100.7, that blows that krock is gonna change too, granted i dont listen to the radio that much up here, but its an awesome station.

this ****ing pisses me off, so now (at least my area) has no oldies station, and will have NO modern rock station... what's next??? if Q104 goes then I'll be pissed at having to buy satellite (how the hell do you spell that lol) or having ONLY cd's.

I tried XM and didn't like the rock stations. The best bet is to get a car audio system that plays mp3s. You'll have the ability to have more songs at your fingertips that any station will play.

I only know people that have sirius and they all love it. sounds good too. PLUS, if your into this kinda thing, howard stern has 2 stations on sirius. one is for him, the other is a news channel. and if you think of it in the long run, stern will bring a ton of new users to sirius and that will allow sirius to make their service better. just some food for thought.

I just learned of this today on the way home from work. Two guys doing nothing but yacking in 94.1, but it was flipping hilarious!

But that's junk. WTF is all the anti-rock ****e going on here now??

I think there's a Ocean County station....98.5 or something like that. Some friends in Medford get it and it's got a pretty decent rock rotation.

KROCK though.......that's just unbelievable. That's probably the best rock station I've ever had the pleasure of listening to.

Around here I can only pick it up on the highway :lol:
I used to have it programed, but whenever Im changing stations it never works.

But seriously, I have been listening to alot of regeton lately. And my dad has XM for the talk radio, and I cannot stand it for the Rock. They do cycle the same songs on certain stations and its sometimes really crappy. When my car does run I usually play MP3 CD's, I have about 120 songs per CD and works nicely on Random.

As RUSH siad in the song "The Spirit Of Radio"

All this machinery making modern music
Can still be open hearted
Not so coldly charted
It's really just a question of your honesty, yeah
Your honesty
One likes to believe in the freedom of music
But glittering prizes and endless compromises
Shatter the illusion of integrity

Sad, but true...

satelite radio is awesome, I have had Sirius for 1 year and I bought my father XM 2 years ago. BOTH have quality programming, but Sirius will have Stern. My vote is for Sirius because I know the Hard Attack dj's.

What most of these stations don't realize is the reason they are losing audience is now that my car has a 6-disc changer (Accord) or MP3 player (IROC), when I hit that <CD> button they lose my for the rest of my drive. It's not necessarily the format as much as the morons and douches talking. If I want schtick I'll turn on Stern. If I want news, I'll turn on KYW. If I want good traffic I'll turn on NJ101.5. Don't give me 2 songs, your half-ass attempt at information, then 10 minutes of commercials. Play the music and STFU.

Could this also be why no one is buying music anymore? if we're not hearing the new stuff we're not buying it.

Ive had Xm for over 2 years now. I absolutly love it, and Opie and Anthony are on it. I hate Howard Stern so I'm not that worried I don't have "the little Doggy one". I do listen to Sirius too cause guys at work have it. I like Octane 20 (modern Rock) and its equil to XM 48 (squizz).

I have the Pioneer box in my truck, so my pioneer headunit controls it. Then In my house I have the Polk XM reference tuner, and I have the SkyFi II that I use when I'm driving for work.

the ocean county station is 95.9 WRAT, Rat radio.

i lived in the philly area for all of my young life (up to 22 y.o.a.). Â*93.3 WMMR and 94.1 WYSP were always changing formats. Â* just when you got set listening to one station, it would change to classic rock. Â*not that i have anything against classic rock, but when you've got your heart set on listening to contemporary music, it bites to have to find a new station. Â*then the other station would change formats to contemporary. Â*it was a rare occasion when both were playing the same format, but that was good because if you didn't particularly care for the song on one station you just flipped over to the other.

there was also 93.7 out of delaware that had good music every once in a while. Â*i don't know what's become of them.

now that i live in ocean county, it's tough to get a good contemporary station tuned in. Â*the ones i have in memory are 89.5 WSOU, 92.3 WXRK, 93.1 (don't know the call letters), 93.3 WMMR, 94.1 WYSP (soon to be deleted), 95.9 WRAT, Â*97.3 (don't know the call letters), 97.9 La Mega, 101.5, 103.7, 104.3 and 105.9 (don't know any of the last 4 call letters). Â*of course i grab a handful of CDs before a lengthy drive just in case i can't find anything on the radio.

it sucks to hear about WYSP. Â*i have a feeling, though, that they'll be back shortly.

i think you're right. i'd be confusing it with a station in los angeles, then. or maybe even texas. who knows where i got those letters, but it is a station that goes by k-rock.
