Hi Harvey,

I agree with you.  We're pretty lucky here in my moderately sized town of
Kalamazoo Michigan.  We have a Locally owned group of three am and one fm
radio stations that feature local programming, at least during the day.  One
of those four stations is all national satellite programming but its the
least powerful transmitter and the lowest rated station in the area.  So
many commercial stations have given up local programming in favor of cheap
national programming repeated from satellite, and then they wonder why
people are buying XM radio.

Take my advice, I don't use it anyway.
