Jack in Chicago is a dramatic change from traditional radio formats. You told us that you are tired of stations that play the same 300 songs over... and over... and over.
104.3 JackFM is playing what we want - the last songs you just heard, yeah we wanted that and that's why we played it. We like 70s, 80s, 90s and every other decade. In fact we are really looking forward to the "tens."
The rules of JACK:
Rule #1 - Play What You Want.
Rule #2 - No Requests.
Rule #3 - How many of these do we have to come up with, isn't two good?
In short, Chicago, we need each other. We play this music and you need to hear it. We look forward to our daily listening parties.
Peace,
E M P L O Y M E N T O P P O R T U N I T I E S
