If you want to listen to real radio, find a station that is locally owned
and operated not some overpriced corporate jukebox owned by Entercom,
Clear Channel, etc. When I make a reference to Memphis it's one of the
better ethnic music cities where LOCALLY owned stations generally exist
with local DJs and local people. Not some satellite feed from some Ivory
tower place in NYC or some other major metro.


Neither Memphis nor Chicago have a higher percentage of locally owned
stations than the average for markets their size. In fact, both are among
the lowest.


According to the NAB they do.

NAB does not maintain lists of radio stations or a database. Per BIA, both
of these markets are as highly consolidated as any.

You'd better contact NAB and inform them of this. They appear to
believe otherwise.
