>>15632942
Fellow LAfag. Radio is ass here. I pretty much only listen to The Sound unless it's early enough for Kevin and Bean to be on KROQ.

If I expect to be in the car for more than 10-15 minutes, I just plug in my Zune.

I gave up on listening to music. Plus the radios in the trucks are all so shitty, especially since the nigs crank 99.1 as loud as they fucking can and destroy the speakers

99.9 KISW

88.5 KPLU

I'm boring and mostly listen to talk shows. I can't do NPR on my way to work though, makes me too sleepy.

I agree

>>15633883

When most of those subscribers are new car owners who dont even pay or retail stores its irrelevant.

It does sound like shit, it they try to get CD quality sound out of 64kbps
>>
>>15632368
I listen to my chillstep station on Pandora about 98% of the time. My 90's alternative and Blink 182 stations make up the other 2%

Used to be the rock 106.9 wcc
But then they went out of buissness or something and changed it into a Christian music station. Feels bad as hell
>>
91.1 KLSU
LSU's radio station. They play all kinds of things. On certain days at midnight they have a program called "The Kitchen Sink" where they play stuff this just sounds, it's not exactly music. It's weird and I like it.

Do other college radio stations do this?
>>
>>15633883

Unless they've improved dramatically in the last couple of years, it does sound like shit.

I almost never listen to FM but if I do it's usually 97.9 KUPD. We used to have a rock station at 93.3 but I think they went alternative a few years back.
>>
>>15633944
>most of those subscribers are new car owners who dont even pay

[citation needed]
>>
The radio station I normally listen to changed brands like 2 weeks ago and now they play shitty music. Now I'm stuck listening to that or another station that plays just enough music so it doesn't qualify as talk radio.
>>
>>15632368
104.5 Bob FM, 97.5 KLT, or 107.5 WCCW if I'm actually gonna listen to the radio. But usually I put on Etsuko.
>>
>>15634008
>it does sound like shit

Most digital radio does. FM and wideband AM ftw. CQUAM is good.

AM 1010 Wins
FM 106.7, but particularly on the weekends

otherwise I don't generally turn the radio on when driving. Maybe its just me but I find it distracting. I cant pay proper attention to my surroundings if im busy paying attention to whats being said on the radio

I listen to a talk radio show in the mornings, iirc the station is 650

>>15632368
Either NPR or iPod.fm

NPR or aux

I keep some CDs with playlists I like in the center console. Typically I don't use the radio. Don't feel like digging for stations when I know what I like.
>>
>>15632368
> Radio
I only use it if the stereo's shat itself and refused to read the USB stick or the aux input. It's done that once in nearly two years.
The only other time I used the radio was picking the car up, and bricked my MP3 player trying to make it talk to the bluetooth.

My previous car had aux input into an aftermarket stereo/amp.

The one I drove before that had a tape adapter.

There are no good FM radio stations if you don't like 'urban' music, pop, dance, or hipster shit.
If I have, HAVE to use the radio, I put Radio 2 on, because it doesn't inspire me to drive into a lamppost to make the noises stop.
>>
Classical from NPR can be comfy.

Usually just listen to what's on the thumb drive at the moment.

There's a fairly local station called MDR Figaro that plays neat jazz, folk and classical half the time, but in return you have to bear with horseshit leftard discussions and book readings the other half of the time. The other stations all play various eras of chart garbage.
>>
>>15633306
This.
Engine music is enough for trips <8 hours.
>>
There is a good indie/alt-rock station, and a classic rock station that I mostly listen to. The university has a station that is really hit-and-miss: sometimes they'll be playing really good segments (old-school hip-hop, etc.), but half the time it's utter bullshit like foreign-language talk radio for some goddamn reason
The other classic rock station I liked got turned into a faggy popshit station, as if there aren't like 10 of those already

89.3 - NPR
If I'm driving back late at night and feel like music rather than BBC, then
93.1
95.5
100.3
101.1
All classic rock stations, or 98.7 or 106.7 for alternative
>>
I have a playlist on my phone but I have a few CDs just in case. Metallica's Black Album, a few Phish albums, and an AC/DC live album. It really depends on where I'm going and whether I feel like plugging in my phone or not

The USB port does exactly that. Even if I remove the USB stick and change the music around, as long as the same file is in the same place, it'll resume.
And it doesn't drain my phone battery.
