It does suck.
You'd think that would be a radios main priority.

They do, and it's ridiculous. Two fricking stations and both of them suck.

They've addressed it on air before and said its an up the chain decision (i.e. Cade Voisoin or other higher ups).

How can you call yourself "104.5 Baton Rouge" if you can't hear it half the time in Baton Rouge?

I stream them using their "In the Huddle" app... No issues.

I have this same problem when my 'phone radio transmitter' (thing you use to play music through radio signal) is plugged in.

I could barely make out anything, but it was Mike & Mike, so really 104.9 was doing me a favor.

Same here. I'm all over BR area and when one is fuzzy I switch to the other. Today neither was clear in Downtown BR area.

Not sure if relevant but 104.1(Pop station out of Nola) went to static in same commute. Maybe something in the errwaves.

104.5/104.9 is my go-to car channel in the afternoon-I hear it along 1-12 to Hammond. I can get the signal to somewhere near Houma (like Scriever or Gray) most days. But I can't hear it in my house off Bluebonnet in Baton Rouge. It's not a radio option other than streaming.

Ironically the signal is the worst for me when I'm driving by Tiger Stadium

They cater to the individual not the masses.

Stream it through the 104.5 app. Gave up on the station's signal a long time ago.

What does the girl say at the beginning of the commercial where Jordy Cullotta tries to be Russillo?

The girl comes on and says "heyyyyyyyyy ya!!!"

Then Cullotta hits you with "Hey Baton Rouge..."

What does the girl actually say?

I have 104.5/104.9 on side by side presets and switch between the two several times during my commute from St. George (off Tiger Bend) to downtown.
I get no reception from either station at the corner of Government Street and East Blvd., one block from the radio station.
