Do you listen to the same station all day? Do you switch at different times of the day? Why do you listen to these stations? I encourage other people from other cities to do the same poll

At work it was always 101.1 and I got kinda used to listening to it. We just had to all agree as it was an 8 man shop with 1 radio.

Ever since I got Sirius Sat Radio I don't listen to normal radio.

So much out on sat radio and no matter where I am, I get my Hot Jamz! It's all good!

I get my comedy, news, all kinds of music all in one package with very little comerical or stupid radio pranks.

Its awesome!

vancouver radio is a waste land.

i've rocked with the fox since childhood, always have, always will. but they play the same crap over and over. and with jeff o'neil and his morning show? i'm sorry but someone needs to ball gag that guy. if there's one thing i CANNOT stand its politics mixed with my rock and roll. every single morning that douche is on his soap box bitching about something.

i dont mind rock 101. bro jake is a dipshit. it seems like all the people on his show are only there to set him up for a joke. i hope he falls on a knife someday

if there's one thing i love about the states it's their radio stations. the range of music they play is so much better than canada's. they aren't stuck with some silly content law, like up here where you can't go 10 minutes without hearing something from nickelback, avril lavigne, or the tragically hip.

i haven't had the chance to pick up xm or sirius radio yet, but i was in vegas last year and got a listen to the opie and anthony show and i was HOOKED. so much so i download their shows off the net and listen to them in my car.

but yeah. vancouver radio reaaaaaaaaaaaly sucks

Laptops are great...

I mostly listen to cd's but sometimes

I listen to Regina community radio..91.3fm Two of my friends have an hour time slot on tuesday nights...

and while in Edmonton I found 91.7fm---on saturdays they have oldschool brunch and it takes me back to highschool days! So fun!

When Im at Sandi's house she puts on a satalite tv, not sure of the station but its crazy techno that is so good for f*ckin!!!

I mostly listen to the CBC, but if there's a non-televised Canucks game happening I'll listen to Team 1040.

I completely agree that Vancouver's radio stations are very bland and lacks variety. I've always liked jazz all my life but there's not a single station here that's dedicated to that genre.

I find that one of my favorite FM station is 98.9 KWJZ Smooth Jazz from Seattle where I can pick-up a fairly clean signal at most parts of metro Vancouver.

My favorite local stations are all on the AM dial...730 Traffic, Team 1040 & News 1130 :)

The Team

I listen mostly to the Team at work to help pass the time...

Listening to these so called experts on Hockey is hilarious. I use to crank call them all the time pretending to be a Native, Old Man, Queer, A Drunk, and a FOB Asian. Beyond hilarious!!!! I wish I had them all on tape...trust me ...you could sell it!!! Unfortunately they screen phone calls hardcore now, so it's not as easy nor as fun, as it use to be...
