Strengths and criticisms

From strictly slow songs, the strong point of all Love Radio shows today has been its plain and simple grassroots entertainment . The jocks, despite earning criticisms from mostly educated listeners of higher income groups for their cheap jokes, senseless banter, and even its absurd and green jock names, were idolized to no end by the ordinary man on the street in every city that its stations are airing .

Another plus factor is the signal quality. Love Radio's signal involves a quadraphonic (4 channel) stereo sound that is heavy on the bass side of music, giving it an overwhelming presence. Its a sure come on even for radios of relatively weak quality, ensuring its popularity.
