    Well, it'll sure be interesting to see what happens to W O K Y within 
say a year or two.

We had a pretty good oldies station in Grand Rapids, MI, and the same thing 
happened to them;  one day, they just turned into an alternative rock 
station, with no explanation as to why.

You would think that the market would be there for good oldies stations, 
with the baby boomers like many of us, but who knows what drives some of the 
decisions Clear Channel makes.

Will enjoy W O K Y for now, I guess.

Might be something good to listen to in the office while I'm working.

The streaming audio link sent by Howard really does work, and I love the 
stereo!
