WIDL does, about every two weeks, roughly.

You can continue to complain about what the new Wheels is or isn't doing, or you can just come to where it's already happening.Enjoy.
We look forward to your feedback. We program locally from 6a-midnight, M-F, corporate system takes over at midnight.MWmetalhead wrote: ↑Fri Apr 12, 2019 6:49 am I will definitely check out WIDL's stream soon - and look forward to doing so!![]()
Did you ever get your broadcast power issues ironed out? Last time I checked (probably a few weeks ago) your signal seemed perhaps marginally better than it was last year in the Tawas area bust still not as good as when you first moved to your new tower a few years back.

Thanks for the props! We're always working to make things better, that's for sure. The music is a blast, I agree! We love the freedom we are being given for programming.MWmetalhead wrote: ↑Fri Apr 12, 2019 8:49 pm I've been listening to WIDL this evening and absolutely LOVE the playlist!!!
"Stop" by Jane's Addiction. Mr. Tinkertrain by Ozzy. Symphony of Destruction by Megadeth. Bound for the Floor by Local H. Also heard a deep track from Motley Crue and a pretty popular hit from Van Halen (cannot remember which song; sorry). Heard a very deep from the Black Crowes, too.
I like hearing ads for local mom & pop businesses read by LOCAL personalities. Everything sounded professionally produced and edited.
Consider me impressed. I will be listening to WIDL online much more often from this point forward. This is the type of radio I miss dearly!
WIDL plays a far better variety of "next generation" classic rock than 106.7 FAKE WHEELS.
Once a week is even too much for that song.Mr.Transistor wrote: ↑Wed Apr 17, 2019 9:55 am If I hear Bohemian Rhapsody one more time on WLLZ , I'm going to kick 'em off my preset
Easily one of the Top 10 most over-played songs in FM/Satellite Rock/Classic Rock formats history. If I started a Hall Of Fame of most overplayed tunes in Pop/Rock history, "Bohemian Rhapsody" would be a 1st ballot entry...Mr.Transistor wrote: ↑Wed Apr 17, 2019 9:55 am If I hear Bohemian Rhapsody one more time on WLLZ , I'm going to kick 'em off my preset
