I wish I could share you enthusiasm for Bay Area radio. I think KDFC is good and I'm a member. I am saddened about the changes at KCSM. I have let my membership lapse after more than 20 years. To me now it is scarce more than a smooth jazz station.

I have to confess- Having been unable to get KCSM/KJAZ for so many years- '90s - I don't really look for it - my Jazz station is KPFA - the programming changes - but there was a time where Monday or Tuesday PM - two great back to back shows - and Saturday from Noon till about 4:00 PM it is usually great!
KPFA also has some of the BEST sound quality...
I also spend a lot of time with KALW and KALX...
Happy Listening
Hi 6BQ5,
I used to listen to both KJAZ and KCSM until KJAZ went down in the '90s.
I tended to like the music on KJAZ better but KCSM had the stronger signal.
KCSM inherited the KJAZ library and I think their programming became more to my taste. All was well with them until a few years ago when some SF soothjazzy thing went down. It seems KCSM now is trying to pick up refugees from that station.
They do have a fairly strong signal now at 91.1 MHz so you might give them a try and see what you think.
Thanks for the reminder of KPFA. When I lived in the the Bay Area I did listen to them. I now live near Placerville so I'll have to see if they stream.

I know they have a bunch of frequencies, but I always thought that was such a shame that Sacramento could not get a frequency for this station.
Sacramento had a great public station - till KQED took it over....
Happy Listening
