Atlanta Area Dopers: 1160 AM (New Station)

Okay, y’all, the TV commercial pulled me in, so a couple days ago I tuned the station in, and then wondered why I had!

The programmed music is fine, but who wants to listen to all that AM noise when Sinatra’s singing New York, New York? I guess I am wondering why any station would spend all that money on ads when it’s just the same ol’ same ol’? Even with 50K watts, all they’re doing is amplyfying that noise!

What am I missing here?

Thanks

What’s “AM”?
