Where are you? Do you know what your FM is doing?

Oh, I live in the South Bay Area of California, Silicon Valley. Multipath heaven (hell?). Would be worth sifting through if 99% of it weren't compressed rock, oldies, and classic rock. There is only one classical music FM station that I know of but that really isn't my bag and they play mostly standard Mozart and Bach stuff, over and over again.

The lone jazz station that I can find (hard to believe in an area like this) is KCSM. It is, though, a great commercial free station. I understand there is another fine jazz station in the North Bay, but I can't pull it in.

In Princeton, New Jersey. Between NYC and Phili. Tons of great choices. Especially WXPN the Univ. of Penn. Home of the World Cafe'.

Richmond, VA. The same stuff they were playing ten years ago. OK, maybe not quite that bad but bad enough. That plus it's heavily commercialized. No tuner on the main rig. Receiver in the garage for background noise. I have a steering wheel tuner in the car & am constantly clicking through it. Turn it off a lot too.

Eastern Long Island New York, Two good NPRs and a couple of college stations. Reception is sometimes tricky but worth it when I hit it right.

Coastal Oregon-- are you kidding? Although.......a college NPR station occasionally has some good blues programming, but not worth getting a good tuner for. We're more into salmon here: ). I do keep an old Adcom around for PAC 10 football games though. A high quality antenna is necessary for this, and I use an MD ST-82-- works great. Cheers. Craig
