The strong signal is worth one star. The commitment to the local community is worth another. Though even those areas are subject to debate as the coverage in many parts of Charlotte is spotty due to other stations and a lot of the local content like the traffic and local news in the morning sound shipped from outside. Overall this old warhorse is turning into a nag that might as well be shipped off to the glue factory. The weekday mix while pleasant seems to have an overall blandness that short circuits the overall effect. And while the performances of the artists have a nice sheen and are very professional too many of the selections are blase without anything really interesting to say. And then about every 4th song a overplayed classic rock track gets ripped out. For a station that for years had specialty shows that did a wonderful job of showcasing the depths of the classic rock/aor history it is quite boring to tune in and to just be given what the commercial stations offer. In regards to evening/weekend specialty programming the blues and beach offerings are great when they stick to mining the stronger most time tested material but lose stature when delving into more recent material. To be honest I have always thought the over emphasis on the beach and shag on weekends turns away twice as many potential listeners as it attracts. Plus it gets tiring hearing what in many cases amounts to infomercials for Dr Phil Goode's or Reverend Kyle's next gig over at the VFW. But also those cats are bringing in a large share of the on air fundraising so I guess they can do what they well please. Now the 321 blues crew to their overall credit are much more professional in their decorum. Also even though they are Monday through Thursday 7-10 each night they never have seemed to oversaturate the airwaves, it is a programming staple and really the Marquee property of the station. What is needed is more variety in programming. Once upon a Time there were divergent options such as collegiate pop, electronica/techno, aor, new age, jam band, aor, big band, acid jazz, 80s retro and various other genres being offered and all had unique fan bases under the wsge umbrella. Now it feels like the musical offerings are much more stringent and narrow. The canned syndicated material like world Cafe is what it is, engaging filler. But even there the offerings seem truncated compared to the distant past. Fund drive time is always a big comedown. Not so much from the specialty programming because those guys and their audience come to the forefront and put their money where their mouths are. But during the meat of the weekday grind it is actually painful to listen to the pleading. In the end they still get my ears, but not my money and to be honest if they were to go away tomorrow I for one would lament their passing but overall really would not too worked up over the matter. read more

1029 The Lake calls themselves "Charlotte's We Play Anything Station" and yes, they do play…read moreanything. They'll flip from Michael Jackson to Kelly Clarkson and follow it with Elton John and Prince. This weekend was an all 80s weekend and the tunes were excellent though perhaps a little heavy on Billy Joel (who I like but can be over played). This evening as I drove to and from the store, the Romantics, Madonna and Cutting Crew. Yes, a lot of anything going here. WLKO is part of the iHeartRadio network.

During the week the airwaves are filled with the music of my youth, all of it from before the turn of the century: Frankies, Georges, Pattis, a dozen or so Bobs... they are all here. Station doesn't carry too far out of town: south into Davidson, east to the county line, over the water to the west, and north almost to Troutman... If you're in town (literally) give it a listen.

From 6 -7 AM they have Mountain Mornings where they play straight up Bluegrass. Never thought I'd like Bluegrass but this show is really good. They use NPR programs for their news - mainly Morning Edition. World Cafe in the evenings and for night owls Alternative programming from 1-4 AM. Just a great variety of music - Blues, Rock, Alternative - an ecclectic blend. And when I lose the signal I turn to 90.7 WFAE, my next review.
