Random Access Radio Newsletters (Aug 12, 2005)

Um, let's change the name of this feature.

Surfing The Radio Web (Aug 12, 2005)

Beginning this week, this weekly feature treading the radio station websites has a new name and format we now call "Surfing the Radio Web".

We made a major change to the format of the weekly feature. Most of the music playlists from the other radio stations (except for FM 94.9 and Planet 103.7) will no longer be featured beginning this week.

Also, due to copyright concerns, links to the Clear Channel-owned radio stations and its subpages have been removed from this page. When Clear Channel's legal team grants us the right to republish some of the promotions on this website, then we can reinstate them.

In their places we have added links to radio stations that carry the Dr. Demento radio show weekly on the web.

Enjoy the new format.

Here's what's going on this week.
