Default Oldies radio

Actually, the station in Gainesville is WNDT. WIND is in Chicago.

In the Central Florida area, I also listen to the oldies station out of Ocala, WMFQ at 92.9 FM; good, strong signal in The Villages.

WVLG is a good station, but the AM signal is a bit muddy; FM is sharper. But when traveling, I've tuned in to WVLG and gotten it a pretty good distance from The Villages, like in Inverness and (scratchy) in Crystal River.

My early working life (starting at age 17) was in radio and I keep up with it somewhat. I've told friends and family that I started as the youngest announcer in the St. Louis market and might need to go back to work part-time in the business as maybe the oldest announcer in some other market someday.

I wonder if WVLG will be hiring when I'm ready to move ... ?
