Radio station B104 spon sored the bungee jumping at a cost of 60$ for the jump and a videotape. rRadio brings in variety By Jill O’Brien Staff Reporter New out-of-town students may dis cover the biggest obstacle outside of finding classes and obtaining books is locating a decent station on their boom box or car radio. For those who prefer easy-listen ing music, which is pleasant on the ears and generally stress-free, tune in to KFOR (1240 on the AM dial). And for those who find too much music gets on their nerves, KLIN (1400 AM), Lincoln’s talk radio station, of fers an agreeable alternative. KFMQ is Lincoln’s rock ‘n’ roll ‘n’ rap station and is accessible at either 1480 AM or 102 FM. But for those not into rap, KHAT (1530 AM) rolls back the years with songs like “There’s a Rose in Spanish Harlem” and could be rated “very easy listening.’’ Lincoln’s FM stations surprisingly outnumber the local AM stations. KZUM (89.3 FM), sponsored by the University of Nebraska, offers )alatable alternative music, ranging rom mellow to bizarre. KTGL (92.9 FM) has acquired the reputation for playing great classic rock hits by the Beatles, Fleetwood Mac, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, the Eagles and occasionally slips in a bit of new rock by a classic artist like Tom Petty. Those who arc not into rap, heavy metal or classic, might consider try ing KLDZ (95.1 FM), Lincoln’s old ies-all-day station. KFRX (102.7 FM) plays a variety of rock, while KKNB (104 FM) leans toward oldies, easy listening and light rock. One of Lincoln’s newer stations, K1BZ (106.3) is geared toward a lis tening audience appreciative of hard rock and metal, while it promotes new artists as well as plays proven classics. For those whose taste is for coun try-western music, park the dial on KZKX (96 FM) or KFGE(105.3 FM). KFGE plays primarily new country hits. KEZG (107 FM) is formatted for easy-listening, no-aclion oldies by artists like B.J. Thomas or the Bee Gees. These aren't the only stations on the radio, but they keep Lincolnitcs posted on local events, cancellations, weather, news updates and of course, music.
