I want to save some classic rock stations on my new used car. Looking for recommendations.

Radio reception can be iffy, my suggestion, do a search with you car radio, when you find a song you like, save the station, do this for several stations, then pick one and listen for an extended period to see if you like it. I had a few and it seems they recently changed format. Also, the villages radio station has some rock music.

I stumbled on a couple, I agree about reception. 98.9 out of Orlando is the best I have found so far.

We are dinosaurs, very few stations cater to our listening preferences anymore. We used to very much enjoy listening to WVLG many years ago because they played lots of music we liked. Unfortunately, that has changed dramatically over the years to the point where they now only occasionally play something we like, and not frequently enough to keep us tuned in. We only tune in when they do the 60’s at 6:00 and 70’s at 7:00 thing, and the 70’s segment seems to focus on the late 70’s when that disco crap started to come out. What baffles me is that my wife and I bought in the Villages relatively young and we are still smack dab in the middle of their seemingly target market age group of mid 60’s, yet they don’t play our generation’s music?

Once I get my phone connected so I can use Pandora I’ll be set.

We use Sirius radio. There are a couple of Classic Rock stations, there are stations that are dedicated to specific groups/performers, stations for specific themes, general rock, rock from specific eras, you name it, they got it. It's awesome.

Years ago, I down-loaded every song to hit the Billboard top 40 from 1950 all the way through 1999. I then created playlists by year - Each year has approx 250-300 songs. Now that I’m retired, I’m glad I took the time to do this - no longer dependent on a radio station. I simply choose a particular year of music I want to hear, and I’m set for hours and hours - good thing too that I like a very large spectrum of music genres.

We listen to 98.9 and 101.1. One is out of Orlando and the other out of Tampa.

Might try a free APP. “ My Tuner Radio” can search genre by city or state rock, classic rock, gospel…

This will help.
Choose your type of music

Paul's Video Jukebox contains songs from the 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s and 80s with over 12,000 selections and over 1,000 playlists

Ever since satellite radio came out, have not used AM or FM. Wife does a great job negotiating price with them.

Try WIND FM out of Ocala. Maybe 95.5?

[MisterZ]

Do an internet search "f m radio station near me." You will see a list of stations and genre.

Thanks everyone for your help. I’m good now.

My son found a special on Sirus radio for 2 years we both share.
I don't remember the monthly amount but it was a really good price.
He works out of his house and has it on all day.
