Baseball Choices on the Radio
Within the past few years, Cedar Rapids has turned into a thriving community with baseball diversity.
- AM 1360 “The Fan” broadcasts the St. Louis Cardinals games.
- AM 800 KXIC broadcasts the Chicago Cubs games.
- AM 1600 KGYM broadcasts the Chicago White Sox games.
- AM 1450 KMRY broadcasts the Cedar Rapids Kernels games.
As a Cardinals fan, I’ll choose the Cardinals broadcast over the others. However, I must admit that I enjoy Pat Hughes and Ron Santo — the great broadcasting duo for the Cubs. It’s great to have so many choices.
Since we all know that a diverse community is a good community, this kind of diversity on the radio is most welcome. Now we just need local affliates for the Twins and the Royals!

Good point, but you left out the sad fact that 1360 and 1600 have such limited range that you can barely hear them outside of CR, especially after dark.
