KDUP
Looking at the bottom sticker from KDUP, one would expect a typical Country formatted radio station. Fortunately, while listening live I heard a much more eclectic mix of music from this non-commercial outlet licensed to Cedarville in far northern California. Reggae from UB40, a 2013 track from Eric Clapton, the Temptations, Boz Scaggs, alt-country from BR549, a flamenco guitar instrumental from Carlos Montoya, the Blasters, a novelty tune from Spike Jones, the Grateful Dead and on and on and on....I plan on listening to this station a lot.
