Listener Mail Hi guys at WSGS - I was in Indianapolis yesterday
an on the was home I was about 50 miles from Indy an 60 north of
Louisville an i picked your station up on my car radio. Keep up the
great work. God Bless. Danny Stinnet I love this radio station. Glad
you're online, now I can hear the best music all the way in Louisville.
Thanks. Faron & Scott, I enjoy your show. I try to listen every
morning. I've been listening to WSGS since 1988. WSGS is the best radio
station in the U.S.A. Heck, let's say in the whole wide world. Ronnie
Sutton, Corbin, KY
LOVE this station. Listening in Orlando, Florida. The country needs more
REAL people stations like this, and a
far fewer of the Corporation Garbage types we have plethora of ... Best
Wishes for continued success. Rob Todd. We lived in Knott County for
most of our lives, but moved to London 10 years ago. WSGS was the
station we listened to before we moved and we still listen to you a lot
here in London...still the best County Music station on the air! Anita
Madden, London, KY. Hello. I am very glad to see WSGS has a live
internet stream so I can listen to news and the music from the place
where I grew up. I am really enjoying it. Thanks. Bill in Ohio. I am so
thankful to be able to hear news down here in South Carolina from Hazard
and also to be able to see the pictures you present of our town. I
appreciate the Flashback, i.e. Cash Walker...I remember watching Cas and
his humor was coarse but good and sometimes I smiled even after the
programs thinking back what he had said. Anyhow, I am blessed to be able
to listen to hometown news. WSGS rides the airways from KY to SC very
clearly. Thanks so very much. Idalee Hansel, Spartanburg, SC WSGS, I
absolutely love your show! You all are the last station I know of that
plays true Country Music. If I lost your show I don't know what I would
do. I have listened to WSGS for years on the way from my home in
Lexington to Pineville. You all have created countless memories that I
could share with my Grandfather with your all's station. One day I hope
to visit Hazard and get to see where WSGS is. I also love the listen
live streaming. Now when I go off to college in Florida I will be able
to keep up with this great station. Thank you guys and keep up the
amazing work! God bless! Nathaniel in Lexington, KY
