Which local radio stations broadcast news on the hour in the
evening and at night?  Even the ones that advertise "all news" etc
often have games or religious broadcasts on.  E.g., last nite at
8:59, 580 announced news at the top of the hour, but then
immediately switched to a canned religious show.  Last nite I
tried all the obvious stations, such as (approximately) 580, 810,
1300 w/o luck.

I'd be especially interested in knowing whether any stations have
an actual human being on duty at night to update us on emerging
critical local stories, such as power blackouts and storms.  

Thanks.
