WVLG is the only AM station you can get without static it seems. I like to listen to the Orlando stations and at times there's too much static to tolerate the stations.

At home in NJ I used to like to listen to my favorite talk shows with a transistor radio in my pocket and an ear bud in my ear and do my chores and projects while listening. Transistor radios are useless in TV. If I carefully dial the table top radio I can get the station most times, but the radio being stationary does not allow me the convenience of listenership I was used to.

One of my biggest wishes would be for a radio relay tower between Orlando and TV.
