Hi Joe,
Glad to help. KPIG did go to a subscription service fee for a time. I managed
to get them free from SHOUTCAST.COM at the time. But they dropped subscription
service some time ago and now are
on-line free.
Go to: kpig.com
Dan Strassberg's comments on this situation are quite interesting and
well thought out. The key is that KPIG wants to cover something more
than a 20 square block area at night. As it is now driving in the

You should remember in giving your 'two cents worth' to add "In My Opinion"

In my opinion :-), it's people like Willis, CAT & Doc Z that make this list
tolerable. Besides which :-) about
KCHE in Cherokee, IA lists 'Timeless Classics' as their programming on
Saturday & Sunday. Trouble is they s/off at 11pm CDT per their web

'Timeless Classics' probably doesn't fit what you are looking for anyway

Yes, on those rare occasions KNEW shuts down I have heard CKDQ atop more than
once, but never with much of a signal. Pat, I remember in the mid 60s from
