In my mind, the low signal strength is unacceptable. Parts of the city can't even receive a clear signal. Bah. And the whole "x as extreme or something" thing is irritating. Play the music and stop trying to be so cool.
Yep I agree - pissed off with the signal strength, but the music is a massive upgrade over CJAY - I haven't gone back.

But seriously Trout, they play bands like Radiohead, New Pornos, PB&J and some other stuff you like, it is the best you're going to get. There just isn't a market for the "alternative" you're thinking about.
