JTP wasn't 'local' when Karel made his comments.


Karel was on ISDN from Long Beach. The board op screwed up.

every city has talk radio but from the afternoon with Bill Cunningham

That's why I like to tune to other cities and listen to their
homegrown talent, you learn alot about those areas by their talk radio
IMO.
I agree about having LOCAL talk show hosts, I am getting so sick of the
national syndicated stuff. *The local host knows the concerns of the callers
and talks about local issues along with national issues.


I listen to Ray T every night on 810 AM.


He's a pretty funny guy eh? *Has an amazing delivery that you either
love or hate.


810 has always concentrated on local talk guys (& *gals).


I'm glad John Rothman got Bernie Ward's old slot. *And the woman doing
overnight weekends is killer. *And Dr. Bill. *That should be good
tomorrow night.


Yes, I can just hear Dr. Wattenberg defending Drill Baby Drill now...

I guess I am not familiar with these terms - my experience with KGO
goes back only 25 years and is intermittent.

D'Oh! I get it :-) What I mean was that the people whop are on the
station are local personalities, not syndicates. You won't usually
hear a George Noory on KGO.

That egomaniacal jerk Wattenburg is almost as far out,
just lacks the professionalism to show any respect to his callers.
...at least that's the impression I got years ago when I quit listening to him.

Am looking for the best choice of a portable AM radio, to be used mainly to

Audio sound quality and decent tuner are a must. * Inclusion of a shortwave

station presets.

Have had a CC Crane radio for five years, and getting *a bit tired of it.
