The fact is that the programming that made the radio "romantic" is also
gone.

Anything can pick up Rush Limbaugh, ESPN Radio, and the lunatic fringe on
SW, but there is very little romance in it, no matter what radio you use.

There was a structure to radio programming back then that is gone now, and
even an A****er Kent can't receive that any more.
