What you'll hear

The music

Classic hits & soft-rock gold

The songs that sounded right on the car radio then and still do now. Think America, Steely Dan, and Stevie Wonder.

The morning show with Captain Satellite 1

Three hours every morning: what's on your mind, local happenings, mail and calls, and something to leave you laughing on the way out.

Every half hour
