Another poster asked about 1970s streamers... now I'll pose the same question for the 1980s.
(I've been checking around since that glitch with WNSN, and haven't found anything consistent.)

KOKZ have actually played the 80s show really well the last two weeks...no screw ups, no clips of segments, all the extras and the theme to the end. Strange that the first hour of the 70s show did include a clipped segment and the theme cut off before the end. I think it needs that sweeper before the AT40 jingle as the net adverts are sometimes a slightly different length from the FM commercials. KOLA and WODC use spoken bits before the AT40 jingle and it misses bits of those occasionally but not the show. The sweeper was missing in the first hour of the 70s this week, but appeared in hours 2 & 3 and was in all hours of the 80s. |

The only problem with KOKZ (especially if you are a fan of the late 80s shows) is that they air a rerun every time a 1987/1988 show is played

Also, I had one glitch (late in the show, the #4-#3 segment) the one time I tried to do KCLH. It has to be happening between a station and DAR. |

Even with its sporadic screw-ups WQSR remains one of the best streams out there.

My 3 favorites...each one typically plays all 4 extras:
WQSR - still the best of the bunch in terms of combined audio quality and not running over with commercials
WMLX (3/4 of the time) - audio quality is as good or better than Jack FM, but they go through periods where they run over with commercial breaks 2 or 3 times a show
WMJJ - same as WMLX
