Local station 92.7 FM KNGY is off the air. Its new owners changed the format and the call letters, and alienated a significant radio audience.
For the time being, I cannot listen to good dance music when I chop vegetables in the late afternoon or bake on a Saturday morning or wash dishes late into the evening. There is no house or electronic or club mix to keep me company. There is nothing but crap now on that frequency.
I mean, do I actually have to go clubbing in San Francisco to get my fill of good dance music? And, will they let me in the building with my kitchen gear?
