Re: [IRCA] Update on California Stations

[Michael Hawkins <downsized99@xxxxxxxxx>]

Don,

 

I knew I'd get to ya!  I have saved your email for good reference material, and snipped it here to keep threads shorter.  Since we're talking about California antiquities here (relatively speaking, of course), have you ever heard of a KTED in Laguna Beach that was on 1520?  I was thinking they were only a CP, but I have found references to on-air personalities from that station.  I know zilch about it, and I'm trying to find out more.

 

As far as your list goes, if you have logs of the following, they had undergone call changes and have ended up back where they were a long time ago.

 

Anaheim/1190 --- KEZY -> KNWZ -> KEZY -> KPZE -> KORG -> KEZY -> KXMX

Apple Valley/960 --- KAVR -> KZXY -> KQKL -> KZXY -> KIXW

Auburn/950 --- before KAHI, was KDIA/1490

Avalon/740 --- KBIG -> KGOL -> KGLM -> KBIG -> KBRT

Bakersfield/550/800/970 --- nothing it what it seems when you dig here

Berkeley/1400 --- KRE -> KPAT -> KRE -> KBLX -> KBFN -> KBLX -> KVTO

Palm Springs area/1010/1140/1270/920/1450 - another zoo

Pittsburg/990 --- KATT -> KECC -> KATT -> KKIS -> KIXA ->KKIS -> KATD

San Diego/600 --- KFSD -> KOGO -> KLZZ -> KKLQ -> KOGO

I could go on forever with these.  Unless this thread develops a fan base, I could just feed you info separately.  By the way, I didn't notice Ukiah/1250, Willits/1250, Yuba City/1450, Oroville/1340.  Did you get them?  Also, you were in California in time for KEWB, KNBC, KOBY, KOFY and a bunch of other NorCal ones.  Were you ignoring local and semi-locals?

 

I may want to get a hold of your old log info for my research project.  If its handy and on the computer, I wouldn't mind a fat email.    I'll see if I can put together a list of my obsolete California stations.  I have received a total of 503 (no TIS types), and 277 have changed call or frequency or city or some combination.

 

By the way, I just noticed you have KPAY/1060 going to 1290.  KHSL/1290 flipped to KNSN, then bought KPAY/1060 and took it dark.  They kept their own format but adopted the KPAY calls on 1290.

 

I'm on my project right now, digging through 1940 issues of Radio Index, so I better get back to it.
