    I made this thread once before, so I figured it'd be a good one to do again. If you're okay sharing your location, what presets do you have on your car radio?

    Mine are in numerical order from least to greatest on buttons 1-5 because I'm obsessive like that.

    1. Channel 955 (95.5 WKQI Detroit) Mojo in the Morning, their morning show, is the best morning show in the Detroit market, IMO.

    2. 963 (WDVD Detroit) "Today's Best Hits" is still their slogan, though they've been playing what they call "the songs from back in the day that make you smile." So they've been known to play a bunch of 80s music mixed in with 2000s and 2010s stuff.

    3. 97.5 (WJIM Lansing) "Lansing's Hit Music Station" Pretty self-explanatory.

    4. 987 Amp Radio (WDZH Detroit) Their slogan is More Hit Music Every Hour, Waaaaay Less Commercials

    5. CK 105.5 (105.5 WWCK Flint) They call themselves "Flint's New #1 For All the Hits." Every day from 12-2 they play nothing but 90s and 2000s music.

    My one AM preset is WWJ, 950 AM. They're Detroit's oldest news station, with traffic and weather together on the 8s.

    So what are your presets?

    Aha! Another Detroit boy. I'll admit, I rarely listen to the radio. If I do, it's usually 106.7 The D (classic rock with hard rock), or 90.9 the jazz station. Other than that I have the following programmed in my car:
    100.7 (Windsor): Adult Hits (nice to hear some Canadian music, I miss when it was a rock station)
    101.1 WRIF: Active Rock (this station used to be my favorite, but it's taken a nosedive, it used to play so much cool stuff, now it sticks to the same songs - most of which I don't want to hear)
    94.7 WCSX: Classic Rock
    104.3 WOMC: 60s/70s hits
    104.7 WIOT: Active Rock (From Toledo, I wish this came in better)
    88.7 89x: Alternative Rock
    100.3 WNIC: Adult Contemporary (basically just for when I have people in the car who do you want to hear rock, this is a nice balance)

    I also have a few London stations programmed but they echo my selection above.

    1. 101.7 KLCA (Reno) - Top 40. I use this one when friends are in the car or when I really don't care what's on the radio.
    2. 88.7 KUNR (UNR) - Public Radio/NPR. This is probably my most listened-to station.
    3. 106.9 More FM (Reno) - Adult Contemporary
    4. 89.1 KJIV The Fine 89 (Reno) - Arts and Culture Radio

    My car has many more presets, but I don't have any of them specifically set beyond these four. I generally listen to NPR/talk radio when I'm driving. I'm not big on music radio, especially considering the options we have here. We have at least three Christian stations, but not a single classical station. And some of the stations with music more of my taste don't come in as well.

    If I remember correctly:
    2 buttons are for the same active rock station
    Another is for 60's-90s music
    Then another (maybe 2?) is for my brothers mainstream/ Top 40 music.
