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...

Thanks Gregg for the good info !!

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.

LOL! He's a piece o'work, isn't he? Proof positive that a good
education does not guarantee neither a shred of wisdom nor a modicum
of finesse.

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

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

In which case, the education would be anything but good.
