WVLG 640am What do you think of it now
 

I feel after years of listening that the station music is not as good as it was and there are some bad sounding djs on the station recently
what do you think? I know a bunch of people who no longer listen

I think what we are seeing with the shift toward a little bit newer music reflects the expanding population of The Villages. Obviously when the station first started, the "oldies" to the folks retiring then were much older. As the years go by, "oldies" get newer and newer as new generations of retired folks move here

They have to appeal to a much larger audience. So I'm not surprised by the broader mix of music these days.

As far as the DJs go, I don't mind them. Miss hearing Rob Newton, but that's OK.

Kathleen Kane has a smooth radio personality and Carol Wiltman always waves when we go past the station. In general I think "circletrack" has nailed it.

I stopped listening because most of the time is spent promoting The Villages and local businesses. Daytime has too much advertising and too little music to be worth my time. I listen to my favorite Columbus station on I Heart Radio or Sirius stations.

If you miss that kind of music try 99.7 FM out of Ocala. They have commercials but mainly just good music 24/7

I really like a hometown AM station. It reminds me of growing up in the country with our local stations. One of the many great things about TVs! I wouldn't change a thing they do.

Totally agree!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know a bunch of people that do...Listen.... I enjoy having the station on at the pool, and on weather station. Radios have dials, buttons, etc. If you do not like the music or DJ's, change the station to something more of your liking!!!!

Enjoy it as well. Don't listen full time, but I also change the TV channel. Would like it if they would stream their station.

I like it...but I wish there was FM sound quality; the same station, but better fidelity.

The music played has definitely changed. Hardly hear Bill Haley and the Comets anymore. I wish that it were also streamed . You could then tune it in anywhere ( I use Tunein Radio).

:agree::agree::agree:

AM sucks especially in a golf cart.

I find the station extremely boring. Nothing but bland computer generated music and endless commercials for houses in the Villages. For good local radio with a huge variety of oldies, try 790 AM out of Leesburg. They take listener requests and will play literally anything you can think of. They also have some unusual programming in the daytime. Only thing lacking is sound quality, but you can stream it. You can even find Rob Newton there.

I love the newer music and I miss Rob Newton. I love Rick Mitchell and his background knowledge of the musicians and songs that he plays. I am not enjoying the female DJ that follows him and find that her voice is a downer with no inflection, monotone.

I really like listening to it. My only wish is that they would stream it over the internet to listen to while playing golf or exercising.
