• AM Radio

    From C Mayhem@21:1/5 to All on Mon May 15 12:13:00 2023
    I was reading some car makers are/have eliminated am radio. Especially EVs. Hard to imagine.
    https://wapo.st/3O3Jj6x
    When I was a kid am was the nuts. WLS. It would travel forever. Multiple states. Eventually FM had the best of music and entertainment. Studs at WFMT. Jazzbo on WBEZ. Blues Before Sunrise. Steve Dahl at a couple of stations. WXRT doing their
    thing. I still listen to a lot of radio in the truck or working around the house. Mostly syrius xm. Hardly any AM. The Cubs games are still broadcast in AM. Once in a while I will catch a Cubs game in the truck if the mood strikes me. I did that a
    couple of weeks ago. When was the last time you listened to AM?

    If my car had no radio at all it would not brother me. The last AM I listened to was maybe 91 or 92. I was in sales with a big territory so I was often out of FM range.

    .

    That was AM Skip. As the sun set, the F1 and F2 layers would allow you to hear AM stations all across the country. As the sun went down, the skip would move across the country and could hear all sorts of different music.

    In Oregon, we could hear Indians pounding drums and yelling "Hay Ya! Hay Ya!"

    The song would end. A new one would start, "And now, 'Sunset for the coyote.'"

    "Hay Ya! Hay Ya!" for another 20-minutes
    .

    When I was a kid am was the nuts. WLS. It would travel forever. Multiple states. Eventually FM had the best of music and entertainment. Studs at WFMT. Jazzbo on WBEZ. Blues Before Sunrise. Steve Dahl at a couple of stations. WXRT doing their
    thing. I still listen to a lot of radio in the truck or working around the house. Mostly syrius xm. Hardly any AM. The Cubs games are still broadcast in AM. Once in a while I will catch a Cubs game in the truck if the mood strikes me. I did that a couple
    of weeks ago. When was the last time you listened to AM?

    If my car had no radio at all it would not brother me. The last AM I listened to was maybe 91 or 92. I was in sales with a big territory so I was often out of FM range.
    .

    Yea. AM had so many ads that it wasn't worth listening to. I went to Syrius, then nothing...
    Same, I went XM for a few years but Spotify and YouTube music are so good. I sill used a USB stick in the car, has 10k+ songs on it.
    .

    Yea. bought about 200 songs for my iPhone. About 99 cents a song. Whenever I heard or thought of a song I liked, I'd buy it for my phone. Then I played back at random while riding my bike, or play it on my computer on iTunes.. That way it was always
    a song I liked. I Think I have my list here somewhere...
    .

    That was AM Skip. As the sun set, the F1 and F2 layers would allow you to hear AM stations all across the country. As the sun went down, the skip would move across the country and could hear all sorts of different music.

    In Oregon, we could hear Indians pounding drums and yelling "Hay Ya! Hay Ya!"

    The song would end. A new one would start, "And now, 'Sunset for the coyote.'"

    "Hay Ya! Hay Ya!" for another 20-minutes

    As a kid my wife would listen to OKC radio in Colorado. In the olden days the WLS Barn Dance (pre Gand Ol Opry) could be heard in a large swath of the country, especially in the evening. When I was a kid I built a crystal radio and would sneak it into
    my bed at night.

    It's posts like this that remind me of how much I need to keep located in the West. Even in Chico I had to deal with some stupid radio stations. Luckly, they had the best rock station I ever heard up in the Chico Area....so, one music station.....and
    then for talk we had Art Bell. I mean if you listen to the country stations you have repeated interruptions about when to water your crops, and some days a double watering or how we can't get caught with 50lbs of Almonds without a receipt or we go to
    jail. And, some of the corniest sales pitches I ever heard that makes you wonder what type of hicks live there. But, I played poker with some of the farmers....a rice farmer, almond orchard owner, Walnut orchard owner....and a watermelon guy from
    Colusa who used to work the Union Pacific Railroad till he lost a leg. Oh, and there was some loser named Chicken Dave and he had the most bizarre relationship with his girlfriend who anyone could screw if they gave him a buy-in. Plus, there were
    gold miners....holy shit....was at an Orville game at Feather Falls Casino....one guy passing around his 4oz gold nugget he found metal detecting the side of a river....then another guy talked about his claim....turns out 2 others had the same claim...
    then the first guy argued he had the only legitimate claim...then a guy I know who was a professional miner said that no fewer than 10 different people have the claim to the same spot on the feather river. Stories like that actually make poker fun in
    the end because nothing else makes a game more profitable than people arguing about unrelated subjects

    Union Pacific Railroad till he lost a leg. Oh, and there was some loser named Chicken Dave and he had the most bizarre relationship with his girlfriend who anyone could screw if they gave him a buy-in. Plus, there were gold miners....holy shit....was at
    an Orville game at Feather Falls Casino....one guy passing around his 4oz gold nugget he found metal detecting the side of a river....then another guy talked about his claim....turns out 2 others had the same claim...then the first guy argued he had the
    only legitimate claim...then a guy I know who was a professional miner said that no fewer than 10 different people have the claim to the same spot on the feather river. Stories like that actually make poker fun in the end because nothing else makes a
    game more profitable than people arguing about unrelated subjects

    JFC you socialist morons are obsessed with Fox news. As I've repeatedly said, I haven't had TV for years, so I don't watch any news whether it's FOX, CNN, MSNBC, etc. Why does your moron ass keep bringing up Fox? I have no clue what even goes on at
    Fox.

    I was reading some car makers are/have eliminated am radio. Especially EVs. Hard to imagine.

    When I was a kid am was the nuts. WLS. It would travel forever. Multiple states.
    .

    That was AM Skip. As the sun set, the F1 and F2 layers would allow you to hear AM stations all across the country. As the sun went down, the skip would move across the country and could hear all sorts of different music.

    In Oregon, we could hear Indians pounding drums and yelling "Hay Ya! Hay Ya!"

    The song would end. A new one would start, "And now, 'Sunset for the coyote.'"

    "Hay Ya! Hay Ya!" for another 20-minutes
    .
    .
    .
    .
    Eventually FM had the best of music and entertainment. Studs at WFMT. Jazzbo on WBEZ. Blues Before Sunrise. Steve Dahl at a couple of stations. WXRT doing their thing. I still listen to a lot of radio in the truck or working around the house.
    Mostly syrius xm. Hardly any AM. The Cubs games are still broadcast in AM. Once in a while I will catch a Cubs game in the truck if the mood strikes me. I did that a couple of weeks ago. When was the last time you listened to AM?

    As a kid my wife would listen to OKC radio in Colorado. In the olden days the WLS Barn Dance (pre Gand Ol Opry) could be heard in a large swath of the country, especially in the evening. When I was a kid I built a crystal radio and would sneak it
    into my bed at night.

    It's posts like this that remind me of how much I need to keep located in the West. Even in Chico I had to deal with some stupid radio stations. Luckly, they had the best rock station I ever heard up in the Chico Area....so, one music station.....
    and then for talk we had Art Bell.
    .

    LOL. So that's what fucked you up. You went from paranormal bullshit to Fox lies...
    .

    JFC you socialist morons are obsessed with Fox news.

    WHOA! We’ll take that as a YES.
    .

    As I've repeatedly said, I haven't had TV for years, so I don't watch any news whether it's FOX,
    CNN, MSNBC, etc.

    Which explains why you espouse your personal ‘paranormal’ bullshit about it.
    (And claim it as ‘fact.’)
    .

    Why does your moron ass keep bringing up Fox?

    Because you use their bullshit as fact.
    .

    I have no clue what even goes on at Fox.

    Or anywhere else, as you’ve admitted…

    Anyone got a prediction for Jerry's June departure date? If we're picking squares, I'll put him at Jun1 or Jun6. June 1st because, why would god want to let him finish out the month and June 6th because that's the antichrist Dameon's birthday.
