Why can I only get Mexican radio channels in my TJ?

I think that's American talk radio you found.

When I was a kid they used to broadcast really high power radio from Mexico and you could tune it in from Los Angeles. Now they broadcast from local AM/FM stations because most country and rock are on satellite or internet so it's cheap. In a way it's funny to think you've got the same thing playing in Georgia now. Advertising still reaches people with those two types of music on the radio, I guess rock and country don't sell pop tarts over AM/FM so they don't broadcast as much anymore.

Mighty 690?

can someone tell me why it is the only stations i can get really clear is the mesiacan stations or the classical music stations WTF ? i can get a rock or country station just long enough to get into it then it starts fading in and out BZZZZ !!!!!!! WTF was my jeep made in Mexico or just the radio ?

Hell, I wish I could get a classical station - there are exactly ZERO around here. Lots of country, "enough" rock, bunches of jigga-boo of one sort or another, and a metric ton of monotheists reciting from their book. No classical or easy listening to be had!

I mostly listen to my own music on Geek sticks...

Mighty 690?

No idea really what stations we heard, 690 does have an interesting history though. It looks like that was just regular music station at the time, I probably wouldn't have even known it wasn't local.
