There are three CCM stations in my area (Charlotte, NC): WRCM, the first FM Christian station in the area which has been around for 18 or 19 years or so, "The Light", which is affiliated with Billy Graham ministries, and in the last year or so we picked up a station which carries K-Love. My wife keeps all three of these pre-set on her radio. Personally, I can't bear listening to any of them. Every other song is either Third Day, Mercy Me or Casting Crowns. The "family friendly" format has simply ruined Christian radio (and pretty much ruined Christian music in general). I have "The Message" as one of my pre-set channels on my XM radio, and will occasionally stop on it if David Crowder*Band or Newsboys are playing. Otherwise I don't bother. There's too much good music out there to spend my time listening to the same old, same old that CCM has become.
When in Charlotte (wife has family in the area), I find that I listen to New Life 91.9 the most. 106.9 the Light tends to play a greater mixture, and has a lot more preaching than 91.9. I also noticed that within the past year or so, K-Love has set up a station at 94.1 for the Charlotte area. K-Love has been operating out of the Greensboro and Raleigh-Durham areas, however, for at least seven or eight years.
