Guess the format

Here are two stations within 200 miles of each other. Both are owned by Clear Channel. One reports as active rock and one reports as alternative/modern rock. Guess which is which

Station 1 most played songs

1. I Want You To -- Weezer
2. Again -- Flyleaf
3. Uprising -- Muse
4. 1901 -- Phoenix
5. Savior -- Rise Against
6. Letter from A Thief -- Chevelle
7. KIngs and Queens -- 20 Seconds from Mars
8. Between the Lines -- Stone Termple Pilots
9. Lay Me Down -- Dirty Heads & Rome
10. Mountain Man -- Crash Kings

Station 2 Most Played Songs

1. Snuff -- Slipknot
2. Jars -- Chevelle
3. Again -- Flyleaf
4. Savior -- Rise Against
5. The Good Life -- 3 Days Grace
6. Walk Away -- 5 Finger Death Punch
7. Monster -- Skillet
8. I Will Not Bow -- Breaking Benjamin
9. Odd One -- Sick Puppies
10. Invincible -- Adelita's Way

If you guessed that no. 1 was the active rock station and no. 2 was the alternative station, go to the head of the class. No. 1 is WTFX the Fox out of Louisville, KY.
The second is WXEG out of Dayton OH, an alleged alternative station.

I visit Louisville a lot because my sister and mom are living across the river. The Fox is a fairly good modern rock station, even if it doesn't want to call itself that, and I do have it in my presents whenever I visit Louisville (the first choice is WFPK, of course) OTOH when I'm in Dayton, I put in a CD.
