I grew up in Boston and on Cape Cod. Mostly I listened to WHDH, partly because they did baseball (Curt Gowdy), partly because that's what my mother had on most of the time. I remember especially Bob & Ray, who were locals 'way back then.

When I moved to St. Louis, there was, in any sane person's mind, only one AM station: KMOX. It is sadly not at all what it was in the sixties through the nineties, but it still dominates.

On the other hand, my real love was classical music. Available only on "Classical 99," KFUO-FM. Now, my only source of such music has reverted to HD Radio, and is really available only on-line, since my newly-acquired HD radio won't pick up either Gainesville/Inverness or Orlando. Bah!
