The music kept me tuned in, even if some of the commercials might have been a little annoying. Led Zeppelin, Dire Straits, George Thorogood, Pink Floyd and a nice blast of Smoke on the Water from Deep Purple made the day. I will say that as much as I enjoy Lynryd Skynryd, playing the Freebird guitar solo before noon on a weekend is pushing my adopted Southern roots. [Review 10369 overall, 135 of 2019.]

Advertising on the radio? I thought I would give it a try since businesses similar to mine are "all…read moreover" the radio, iHeartRadio stations in Asheville in particular. I met with a sales rep who told me we could get a 3-week run during "drive time" for $750. However, when the ads started running we got NO calls based on the ads (unlike social media which gives nearly instant performance). So, I asked what's up and they sent me the list of when the ads were running. More than 80% of them were 8 PM to midnight! None were in what I would consider "drive time" of say 5 pm to 6:30 pm. THREE ads of the hundreds scheduled were from 6:45 to 7 pm. The EXCUSE ("explanation") was that was "the best we could do with your budget". Well excuse me, but shouldn't you have told me that at the time of the sales meeting? You sold me a bogus bill of goods with a totally misleading description and when I asked for a refund for halting after a week you have said you'll "ask" management if I can have $100 back. What I got for my money was an EDUCATION - Don't use iHeartMedia unless you nail these people down to EXACTLY what they intend to deliver BEFORE you pay. (Caught once, shame on me!)

Spending two hours driving through Asheville and enjoying your local traffic, I was at least able…read moreto have some decent tunes. The Brew is one of those "We Play Everything" stations and they do. The music skipped from Aerosmith to Huey Lewis to Spandau Ballet to Madonna. Decent adult contemporary tunes where I knew most of the words. Minimal interruptions but they sure like to remind you that you can get this same content on your smart speaker if you're so inclined. If there was a DJ, I didn't notice them. And that's a good thing. [Review 14944 overall, 446 of 2021, number 2840 in North Carolina.]

I just purchased my latest piece of stereo equipment, a SOUNDESIGN AM-FM stereo multiplex. I got…read moreit all hooked up, and tuned the dial to pick up a station in order to test its potential sound capabilities. The dial landed on Star 104.3 - WQNQ. Now, I do not typically listen to the radio, as I am generally familiar with what Asheville-area radio stations have to offer. So, I was pleasantly surprised by the sounds coming out of my new multiplex. I was whisked back to the 1980's, I reminisced while listening to those rockin' 90's hits, and then was delivered up a dose of some of today's catchiest tunes. I dare say its "Asheville's best mix of the 80's, 90's, and today"...
