What is up with 104.5 and 104.9 lately? LSU talk radio.

Every morning, 104.5 is playing music from a different show and you can hear off the bench intermittently. 104.9 has been extremely static. In the afternoon 104.9 works well in Gonzalez but as soon as you get to Baton Rouge, it cuts out and 104.5 is better

It's the intercranial static of Mascona's big arse head interfering with the signal.

You think Gordy cares about static? As long as his bills are being paid, he's going to let it ride.

Terrestrial radio is dying my man. Nobody’s investing in the infrastructure. It’s going to get worse.

Ever heard of podcasts?

Podcast form also gives you the ability to fast forward Mascona’s 10,000,000 ad reads

You can get around this by not listening to Moscona

The OP said "every morning" which suggests he likes listening live on the drive to work or something like that.

The best thing to do is turn the app on on your phone and listen to it that way.

If your car has HD radio then listen on 98.1 HD2. I haven’t had many issues locally.

You aren’t missing anything if you tune in between 7;00am and 7:30am unless you care about movies, music, Razor or Junior High and High school.

Between the poor broadcast quality and the useless banter the sports talk is almost non existent.

It’s always been awful. They claim they can’t do anything about it which is a joke.

I always used to notice when I still listened to that anytime I was near powerlines (the light on bluebonnet and perkins for example) it was be unhearable.

I feel like this has always been an issue in the BR area.

104.5 has its broadcast tower in East Feliciana parish near Jackson.

104.9 has its tower near Donaldsonville. Neither station is really a Baton Rouge station although its studio is on Government Street in BR.
