An effort to acquire a true FM signal has been taking place since at least 1972. Currently, KSDT's "fiercely independent" programming is carried solely via streaming on the internet.

Huey Lewis and the News / WRIF / WPLJ
A few weeks ago we went to see Huey Lewis at the Rose Music Center just north of Dayton, Ohio. Huey's voice and the band sounded great (especially the horn section) and, except for a couple new songs and an a cappella section in the middle of the set, consisted of nothing but hit after hit. "Do You Believe in Love" "Workin' for a Livin'" and "Heart and Soul" (their best song...IMO) were particular highlights. I could go the rest of my life without ever hearing "The Power of Love" again but it was still nice to see it live.
