It finally happened. Houston's only commercial classical music station,
KRTS
92.1, is dark. Well, not exactly. It is now KROI, with a format of the
worst
music of the Nam era -- the whiny, twangy crap.

Thanks to satellite and Internet-- Houston has a number of choices for
classical music. That's probably one of the reasons KRTS cashed out.
They're competing against the new technologies-- not just the non-comm down
the dial-- for the classical audience.
