    I need help with what Dallas radio stations to program in my stereo. Scanning i have found so far:
    88.1 jazz
    89.3 blues
    92.5 classic rock
    102.1 pop rock
    97.1 rock
    93.3 rock
    103.7 soft rock
    102.9 modern pop
    105.3 talk
    101.1 classical

    Im looking for:
    Reggae
    bluegrass/old timey country
    Funk
    Anything out of the ordinary

    No country, no rap please.

    Thanks for your suggestions. Whats your favorite station?

    What about AM? I havent even tried that yet.

    On my dial I have:

    100.3 - Adult Contemporary
    101.1 - Classical
    102.1 - Rock
    102.9 - Adult Contemporary
    103.3 - Sports Talk
    103.7 - Adult Contemporary
    104.5 - R & B
    106.1 - Top 40
    106.7 - Dance w/R & B
    107.5 - Jazz

    If you live farther north (Around Denton/Argyle) 97.5 is a good mix station as well. Dallas/FW doesn't have a good blend of stations in my opinion. I think the best city in terms of selection is San Jose, CA.

    Come on guys, where's the electronica/dance stations?

    I listen to 105.3 talk most of the time. When I want music it's usually 93.3 or the CD player.

    6 to 8pm is blues every night.

    105.3 in the mornings for Stern then MP3's until Russ Martin comes on. I'm not much of a fan of Pugs & Kelly Show.


    Others:

    88.7 KTCU
    89.3 KNON
    101.1 WRR

    Everything else is crap.


    I miss the old days of ZROCK, KZEW, & Q102. One thing is for sure, I'm getting Sirrus satellite radio.

    Yes. Since I installed it in a couple of our vehicles, local stations aren't even in the game.
