Default Ladies and Gentlemen,

Boys and Girls;

Here is the problem with WiFi, Satellite and internet Radio.

It does not give you any local information!

You're out on your boat, grooving to XM, Sirious (Same company BTW) and a thunderstorm squall moves in...are you going to hear about it on your satelite radio? Nope. What about if you switch to those "local" radio stations? Do they have local information? For the most part, no,

Unfortunately in these days of "corporate media" the local stations broadcast syndicated shows and next to zero local information.

You need to rely on your Marine VHF/WX Band while you are on the lake, if you are listening to your tunes and thinking that if something happens the radio station will let you know, then you are pissing in the wnd!

Personally I like WMWV, Music without boundries. It's live and local although it's a little north of the lake!

Yes, I do this for a living!
