I'm partial to https://www.kusc.org/

one of the only publicly supported classical stations in the U.S....and no commercials, but they do have fundraising drives 2x a year. I can receive their radio signal here in San Diego while driving or I can stream on my phone/internet.

but they have loads of support locally and their fundraisers typically only last 2 to 3 days till they meet their goals. There's one going on right now, and this is day two, but I think they only fund raise till mid to late afternoon.

Is this the same as all Classical Portland, one of my top 4 picks? The others being WETA, Classical Minnesota Public Radio, and Symphony 92.4.

Prior to the pandemic it was not uncommon to be on the road at least 10 hours a day, listening to classical always. At their website affiliates were listed leading me to ask.
