I spent countless hours listening to the radio stations you mentioned.
I remember WFNX when it was WLYN in Lynn, before Stephen Mindich, owner of The Boston Phoenix, bought it.
And you can't talk about Boston radio without mentioning WZBC 90.3 in Newton (still going strong and my favorite of the bunch.)
North of Boston, WJUL 91.5 in Lowell (my choice when I was too far north to receive the Boston stations) another great station at the time and to this day.

It's been many years since I spent so much time behind the wheel, outdoors and free from an office building or plant/warehouse, earning a living in constant movement on the road.
This quote by you echoes my sentiments about that time...
"I sometimes miss those days as a driver, meeting people from all walks of life, cruising through the city, listening to music. It was probably the last time in my life that I listened to the radio on a consistent basis".
I couldn't have put it any better.
