Re: The Death of R-O-C-K in Omaha?

And PS. I got my receiver free. Easy to do if you know how to work the system. I also paid for a 5 year block of service that came to about $6 a month.

So for less than the price of a 6 pack of Budweiser at the quick shop per month it's not really expensive at all.

Re: The Death of R-O-C-K in Omaha?

XM has just over 9 million subscribers and Sirrius over 8 million. That is over 17 million radio listeners who are tired of crappy over the air stations.

As long as the satellite companies keep the commercials off of the music channels and continue keeping kick ass play lists your local radio station will continue to lose listeners.

Yeah, back then. When we actually had to get off our asses, and here's a concept, go outside and play for entertainment.

And when the sun would go down you could hear the Mom's yelling for their kids to come in for dinner. And we would all yell back. Just a little longer, please!

Re: The Death of R-O-C-K in Omaha?

Are you enamored with HD radio? I haven't heard one, but I've read a little bit about it; what is your opinion and does it blow standard radio out of the water?

Re: The Death of R-O-C-K in Omaha?

i'd bet if i had non-factory speakers then it'd be fantastic
however, all the AM stations come in with FM quality
and even KFAB is HD
it picks up some of lincoln's stations too
