Worst Station I've Ever Heard

[WGHRADIO]

       Yesterday I listened to 770 AM /KAAM,and  it is BAD.Music of the past 60 years,with Pams Series jingles from the 60's.The Pams Jingles are the best sound coming from 770,too bad....

WHat makes the music and the rest of the station so much worse then the jingles??

KAAM is one of a few bright spots on the dial. If you don't like the music of the 40's,50's and 60's then go listen to something else more in line with your age. The Pams Jingles sounds are from the 50's and 60's that is their image,and it works for them. Frankly they sound better than a good chunk of DFW stations, and haven't sold out to some consultant research focus group, sales gluttony most other stations have.

WHG, perhaps you've been conditioned to the junk most "consultant"-based radio calls a decent "product" these days. I'll listen to 770 for the fact they have some decent "standards" and none of the "pre-packaged hits" you hear on a corporate-owned station

I was recently in Dallas and dialed in 770 and the sound quality was awful during the day.  I felt like I was listening to an MP3 file recorded at 8K.   Is that the result of using IBOC?    If so, that's a heck of a trade off, satisfying the 3 people who have IBOC AM receivers at the expense of 1,000's listening on plain old AM radios.

OK he narrowed it down. We all agree the IBOC  is pure garbage,but KAAM format is one of the last glimmers of hope in the gray world of DFW radio.

I live in Garland, and when I listen to 820, I often can hear the 770 signal in the background. Is this a result of the IBOC?

I think the board's generation gap is showing.

I love the music, jingles, and personalities on KAAM.
