Default Digital radio displays and the resultant loss of virtue.

The virtue of patience, that is...

It would appear, at least in my case, that the ease of finding out just
exactly WHERE you are on the dial has reduced greatly the time spent at
a given frequency. Before digital displays, I'd spend at least the time
required to get call letters, country and frequency.

Now,the program has to be interesting or, at the very least, I have to
be in the 'fire and brimstone' mood to put up with the US televangelist
types with the Southern Drawl.

Anyone else find that while digital displays are very fine things to
have,. they just MAY have induced an instant gratification syndrome?


Sounds like a dumbass Canuck problem to me. At least it's giving you something
new to whine about, another hallmark of dumbass Canuck thinking.
