My question is when will someone start up a radio format that is 1970's-80's alternative?

[null and void]

Ga. That's what it says, Ga. I have no clue where Ga comes from...

[null and void]

Just Googled it. It's spoken in Ghana.

Well Ya along with Hank, Buck and some Eagles

I knew it was all over out there when the old KFAT changed.
What was that 83? It was all downhill after that.

Music to my ears.

I lived next to a park near SJ which was used for parties every summer weekend. I loved when the Mexicans came for their music (and dressed nice). The gringos played trash rock.

Exactly...just as post # 19, 20. I am moving to XM in just a matter of days. Last year or so one of our local stations that had 40's-50's swing format..went Mexican. I was annoyed, but what can ya do. So XM here Icome.

And America slowly transforms into Mexico -- one barber shop, one house, one radio station at a time.

If that's what it takes to exterminate rock - fine.

I've had it for 1-1/2 years. You won't regret it. It is so superior to terrestrial broadcast radio, I hesitate to even compare them.

[Conservative4Ever]

Thanks for the encouragement. Mr. C4E and I want to take a road trip and will give it a tryout on the road.

[Stateline]

Ah yes...they are everywhere....even here in Kirkland Washington...much further north than San Jose...you can hear the daily beat of Mexico.....

[FreedomPoster]

You'll really appreciate it on the road. Not having to deal with signals fading out as you leave a city is great. I've listened to XM40 for entire 5-hour trips.

Hispanic Americans are some of the best Americans, and I want them to be Americans, not Mexicans living in America.

Some are Americans and will miss the death of American culture just like the rest of us --- don't forget --- the Grateful Dead's Jerry Garcia --- he was a hispanic -- but not a Mexican.

[hershey]

This is not good news.

[FITZ]

Have you listened to the lyrics though? Look how much of that music is just about drugs --- drug smuggling and the glorification of violent drug king-pins.

[mad_as_he$$]

Adios KSJO!

I live down in the Salinas area. The only conservative AM station, 1380AM, switched to big band music on Thursday. No more Rush and Reagan in the car.
