Those stations are certainly community champions.

I’m a former commercial radio jock/promo staffer - so I still have an affinity for frequencies higher on the dial.

How disappointing! They were the only commercial radio station with a signal in Milwaukee playing with music and now we’ll have nothing.

Which local station will flip to fill this gap? I’m guessing 106.9 (but their signal isn’t nearly as strong).

Red Curry (Chicken) as spicy as it comes from Milwaukee’s Thai A Kitchen.

Made my first Reddit post today… turned out to be an efficient way to get feedback on my word choice and writing style (not why I posted, but certainly what I got)! 🫣😅
