A woo woo, a wooo wooo

I'm fond of radio station names, much like I like band names. I heard a good one today...The Foxy Monday's. All Chicks.

I also was bored and scanning my radio stations locally when I predicted the name of a radio station. I probably knew subconsciously but, still I impressed the me.

So it had me thinking...

Why do radio stations not use letters like L or J or E. It's always Z, X, Q, B, ?
And why are so many classic rock stations called Fox?
Urban stations like to use Z, Power, Hot, Jam, and Magic.
Country stations like to be animals, and rock stations like to be weird things like The Edge, or Extreme, and really like to use X because of generation X.

Here are some stations I made up I bet you will be able to guess a genre
90.3 The Cross
Hit 96
Power 101.1
B104
106.5 The X
98.7 The River


I really like John Mayer's Clarity. Just saw it live on PBS a few weeks ago and gushed over it. I like him only as a friend though. He would be a fun dude to hang with...his comedy skills are underappreciated as well.
