Terri PourahmadiDeKalbResident“I want less commercials and more blues and jazz channels. However, the Evening Public Radio has a good format already.”

Ann KijowskiCortlandResident“Absolutely less talk, less stuff and more music. Also, some specialty stations like classic rock, oldies, blues and jazz channels.”

Timothy NjueDeKalbResident“I want less commercials and less talk, because usually they don’t even complete a song before they start talking and sometimes they sing along with the end song, and that is really annoying.
