I have Sarelite radio in my car and in the house. I like 'The Loft" channel 33. They will play jazz, folk, rock, Latin( mambo, samba, salsa). A good ,mix at night. They have DJs such as David Johansen, Vic Scalia, + others. I like hearing new music. There is also "The Bob Dylan Radio hour which is great. He plays all sorts of things even some country.
On the news side there is the BBC, CBC, PBS with shows that don't make our local PBS radio. "On Point" , "Forum", "Fresh Air", "Click and Clack", "Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me" and they repaet them so if I miss something I can find it later.
If you want to know what is coming through your speaker with no surprises get an MP3 player. The sound is only so-so but handy. Eric
