@ValuSkr    I just turned the radio to NPR and its all music in Spanish.  Maybe it'll get better.

I'm a radio fan.  I listen to Progressive talk radio and sports talk radio.  I like it because I can get things done while listening.  I'm not old enough to remember old time radio days but I enjoy old time radio shows on some stations.

I can always remember my mom going to sleep with her transistor radio in her ear, listening to a baseball game!  I'm somewhat of a news junkie, so I listen to my all-news radio station several times a day on my Bose radio.

@Kachina624  I don't like everything on NPR either.  Some shows are an automatic turn-off and some I hate to miss.  It may also depend on the format of your NPR station.  Some are all music, often classical, and some are all talk.

@Kachina624 My Bose is an older model.  On the remote, it has a button you depress to listen to other than music.  Otherwise, I'd never enjoy listening to my all-news station!

I had a transistor radio too.  I took it every where with me.

My dad laugh when that song Transistor Sister came out.  He said that was me.  Especially because my brother always called me Sis.  I was a true Transistor Sister!

@QVCkitty1    I used to listen to them years ago when I lived in Texas.  They were hilarious.

Not much of a radio fan. When driving to the ice rink, turn on the FM to my preference in music, and always seems to be a loooong commercial. Switch to another that has my choice of music? Same thing.

At home and in our vehicles, if I want to listen to music! It will be either our own CD's, or music compiled from my live concert DVD's, burned on to a CD. Too much commercial time used on free OTA FM radio to suit me, and! Ain't no ways I'm a gonna pay to listen to music.  🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶

@QVCkitty1   I listen to WFMT, the classical radio station here in Chicago, every day.  

I remember those transistor radios.  They were the latest in technology!
