Aural Signals

My favorite radio stations and why:

Most of my favorite radio stations are non-commercial broadcasters, 88 to 92 FM. (Since stations in this country are assigned odd-numbered decimals, that means stations from 88.1 to 91.9 on VHF FM.)

College music stations category, off the air:
88.1 WKNC Raleigh, NC. They place mostly Indie Rock during the day including a lot of local bands. At night Monday through Thursday they program dance/Techno. Punk is broadcast on Saturday afternoons. Of course this is one of my favorite radio stations. On the down side, they play cliche based Hip Hop late night, and their signal gets weak in the suburbs.
89.3 WXYC Chapel Hill, NC. It's the anything and everything music station. If you're closed-minded, forget this station. They play Rock, Indie, County, Hip Hop, Trip Hop, Techno, Industrial, Acoustic, Folk, Kabuki, Noise Pieces, and any other category you can imagine. Down side is that they play some seriously annoying shit at times, and their weak signal just barely touches Raleigh.
88.7 WXDU Durham. A block format station that has good Indie music, some odd stuff, and more Electronica than the other stations. Downside is their pathetic signal strength. Signal fades east of the airport, and doesn't even reach Raleigh.
91.3 WZMB Greenville. I haven't listened to this station in the far eastern portion of the state in a while. Signal is weak, covers 8 miles around ECU.
Web stations:
CKDU Halifax. This is a good college station.

I also like news/public radio stations such as:
WUNC Chapel Hill. All news, talk, and public affairs. Features NPR, PRI, and BBC programing. Their signal is weak in the eastern suburbs. Also repeats on WRQM Rocky Mount and WUND Manteo.
WKNS Kinston (which repeats WZNB New Bern and also repeats on WBJD Atlantic Beach). Mostly news, talk, and public affairs with NPR programing.
