Strange Pre-Sets

[MarcB]

My buddy has been driving his mom's Jeep Liberty for the past 4 days while he's getting the engine repaired/replaced in his Pontiac Grand Am. He was showing me the radio and his mom's got strange pre-sets.

FM.

1. WIHS 104.9
2. WWYZ 92.5
3. WZMX 93.7
4. WKSS 95.7
5. WTIC 96.5
6. WKCI 101.3

As for the AM she only has one preset set. Button #1 is WXCT 990. You see my buddy and his family are Sicilian and WXCT has the best Italian Show in Central Connecticut on Sundays from 830AM-1:00PM.

You are more obsessed with WXCT than I am with WNYZ.
Now I feel like making a post about how all my car radio presets are 87.7 when I had to jump start my car a few days ago.

[MarcB]

As for myself I have all 12 FM and 6 AM programmmed, but I only usually listen to 4 of the FM and 2 of the AM.

FM-1

Button #1 WZMX 93.7
Button #2 WDRC 102.9

I listen to these 2 the most.

Button # 6 WZBG 97.3

I only listen to WZBG for the Sunday Morning Jazz Show.

FM-2

Button # 6 WPKT 90.5

For Car Talk and occasionally Food Schmooze and Prairie Home Companion

AM

Button # 1 WTIC 1080

For The Local News and Weather

Button # 2 WCBS 880

For The Yankees and if I want to know what's going on in NYC. (Note: For NYC News I prefer 1010 WINS, but because of that stupid 990 station 1010's reception is horrible).

2 990 references in as many posts and in the same thread? Couple that to the banality of this whole subject. Well done, we've sunk to a new low here.

Is this REALLY all that's going on in CT radio?
Come on.

How can you call 990 stupid when you know for a fact that it takes up presets 3 through 6 on your car's AM radio? (I'm willing to bet dollars over donuts that this is true.)

You lose that bet and I'll take a dozen Boston Cream Donuts Please. :-)

Button #3 is WATR 1320 - For their music programming.

Button # 4 is WPOP 1410 - When I want to hear sports talk.

Button # 5 is WDRC 1360 - for Dr. Joy

Button # 6 is WLAT 910.

[DJ Jim Wayne]

WOW! !  I'm glad we got that straight.

[DToTheJ]

So Marc claims 990 is not currently on his AM presets, even though he admits to tuning them in regularly for their Italian music show on Sundays.

I'm doubling down.

[Ron]

Wow, who really cares?  I mean, really???  But I suppose lists can be comforting to some types.

If anyone asked what my presets were, I'd say "quite well thought out, thank you".
