Dearest SFTV_troy:

Stop the crossposting crap. We in ba.broadcast aren't interested in
responding to crossposts to non-related newsgroups.

Actually I just had my ears tested, and I still have high frequency
response up to 18,000 hertz. I doubt a man of your advance age
(somewhere around 55?), can say the same.

If you bothered to TRY those stations, instead of being a close-minded
old grandpa, you'd probably be surprised how good they sound.

Oh well.

Be a hard-headed, calcified old fart, who is so set in his ways, he's
like a marble statue.

But can you recognize music? Any concept of tone?

I'd trust Dave Brubeck's ancient ears over mine and mine over yours.

Tin ear.
