    .... and what sort of music or programmes do they have?

    Mine - Sunshine 954 which is a local "Gold" type station. Being small and local it's able to be individual so the presenters are personalities, and we don't have that annoyingly-slick sound of "local" stations that are part of bigger groups. A good wide selection of music, mostly from the 70s, 80s and 90s but with a few recent tracks too.

    The radio doesn't play the kind of music I listen to, so I usually tune into the biggest classic rock station here, Rock 107. It plays the overplayed classic rock songs, which are the ones I like, hehe. Also, it's uncensored, which I find intriguing and rebellious, heh!

    The French radio... sucks !!
    The few stations I could listen to, can't be heard where I live.

    We get 80s classics, the news and "Hits".

    I love REAL music.

    I don't listen to the radio all that much, really...

    I used to listen to a rock station called Y100 a looong time ago, but it got pushed off the air by some crappy rap station. Now, I just listen to whatever anyone else puts on, or nothing.

    It's the local University station here in Calgary, and it plays some quality music. The DJs are annoying sometimes, but they're all really passionate about their shows.

    That's important. I hate presenters who are not interested in the music or don't enjoy what they are doing - or are only there for their own egos. There are too many like that on UK radio.

    I don't listen to the radio at all. I am not even sure I could name a radio station if I had to.

    From a playlist of about 20 songs during the day (well it was when I had to work somewhere that had it on all day for a few weeks last year). I guess evenings and weekends are better though.

    There aren't any good stations here in Uruguay. The one I liked closed the other day because of fraud accusations towards its owner...

    Atlantida FM, the local station, sucks beyond belief.
