Listener Comments and Reviews
This station was great until recently. I enjoyed it a lot until they started playing more Active Rock.

Great station. I live in Syracuse where there is no Real Alternative station. Highly recommended for any Alternative fan.

Seems like you guys have settled down there a little bit at live 105. I just tuned in after the Dave debacle to find out you were playing good music again the big question in my mind are you going to do a not so silent night, I’ve been able to enjoy six or seven, while it was live 105.
Thank you, dead air Brian
