Re: [IRCA] 1570-KTGE (Salinas, CA) Format

[D1028Gary@xxxxxxx]

Patrick and Don,
 
Thanks very much for your information about the 1570-KTGE format, in  
addition to Mike's helpful comments. I will forward all these programming  
details to Tony (in New Zealand), who certainly will appreciate your  assistance.

I  haven't listened for some time but 1570 at night is rather a mess here 
in  San Francisco with both KCVR & KTGE mixing.  KCVR normally  atop.  
I'll confirm what Mike said.  KTGE could usually be told  from KCVR by 
their Tiger Roars & La Tigre announcements.  As to  Cumbia music, I'm not 
familiar with it.  I'll try and listen to 1570  soon.
