Have you ever been irritated by the fact that every big-time commercial radio station feels the need to play one type of music into the ground? You know... every city has the Hot Hits, Classic Rock, and Alternative stations that are so concentrated and repetitive, you can't listen for more than 30 minutes. Of course, there are listener supported stations that go out of their way to play music nobody else is.
And, as we all know, there's probably a reason everybody else isn't playing this music. And then there's us. Your pals at The Point. We play a mix of three music formats: Top 40, Alternative, and Album Rock. We play new music BEFORE any of the other big stations in our area catch on to it. We're also pretty fond of throwing in the music we grew up on: 70's and 80's classics as well as the 90's. To us, will never be old music!
On top of all that, we're commercial free. And we have a dedication to local news and sports that outshines any other music-intensive station here. We've won awards from the New York State Broadcaster's Association. In the past few years, We've won awards from National Association of Collegiate Broadcasters, and College Broadcasters Inc as well. We're involved annually in several fund-raising and public service ventures, including Coats for Kids.
