2 minutes before midnight KGIL played their final Retro 12-6-0 jingle followed
by the tune How Sweet It Is. Top of hour ID was KMZT Beverly Hills KKGO HD2
Los Angeles. They're playing classic right now. Going to check now and see if
the new websites www.retro105.com and www.kmozart.com
I guess recycling is popular in LA Radio. How many times has that station
been down that path? 540/San Diego, 1260/LA, 1510/San Rafael and
1050/Frazier Park take turns being K-Mozart. Maybe he thinks it will get
popular sooner or later?

It's hard to keep track of all the places that he has put KMZT, KKGO, KJQI,
etcThe new www.retro105.com is indeed up and running. Both K-Mozart and
KKGO Country 105 FM have iPhone and Droid apps coming available, haven't
confirmed if KKGO HD3 will or can yet
Date: Mon, 4 Apr 2011
I read an article where the owner of Mount Wilson Broadcasting stated that
he had heard from many people that they wanted KMZT back so he responded as
of today.
I'm glad he's offering retro105 online as very few will hear it on hd radio.

Craig, I have made a lot of on line queries about the MW performance on
mobile HF rigs. Other than the 703+, the only positive report
that I received was for the yaesu FT-897. I might go to Lentini Comm. in CT
and see if they have any set up so I can try them out in person, if I do I
will let you
Cheers
Best wishes
Barry :-)

The good old days have got up and gone.
The old XEROK now runs 30kw day and 50kw night if everything is working
right. The days of the 150kw Harris transmitter are just a memory.

Are there places, besides where I am, where you can nightly receive 2 or more
co-channel stations running at least 50kW (or more, as may be the case for a
few Mexican stations)? Here just south of El Cajon, CA, on 1580 I receive a
fairly strong signal from KMIK Tempe, AZ (which is often as
I checked 1660 kHz a few minutes ago and KUDL
(ex-KXTR) was broadcasting classical music. I assume
they'll also be carrying minor league KC T-Bone

Considering it's the closest station to me on 1660,
its signal doesn't get out very well. Barely audible

Mike,
It seems that so many stations that change format, they are searching
for that Gold Ring format that will make them riches and number 1 in
their market. It is an old story, but unfortunately on AM in this
country, very few AMs make it into the top 20, let alone #1. An FM
station has a
QSL with a picture of Randy Rooster, one of the DJs, who played the
rock stuff.
I think I have the same QSL. One also from AK from XELO from the 60s.

No wonder I never hear XEROK. For some reason I never realized XEROK was
not operating with the same power. I guess I never checked. The same was
true with XERF 1570 for years, running about 18 KW if lucky until a few
years ago when they boosted to 100 KW, now they are a pest on 1570 that

I still get XEROK and XERF on a consistent basis, but the station I'm
struggling
to hear nowadays -- one that use to rule 540 at night - is XEWA! Wonder what
in
the world happened, if their ground system is deteriorating, or if they are
simply running less wattage now than in the old days.
I think they should also remember the lesson learned from the first four
times that the experiment has been done, rather than keep trying it
periodically. Then, remember (1) Its an AM station, and (2) its Los
Angeles. He's gotta do something really different in that market to get

David,
That first sentence is oddly funny but quite true. I had to look up
oligarchy in the dictionary. :) It meant what I thought it would.
However I'm not sure that the oligarchical tradition is just reserved
for the NRC. And maybe not even radio related hobbies, either.

One thing to remember about KMZT owner Saul Levine: there's nothing as
constant as change.
He's in his seventies, and he marches to the beat of his own drummer.
He changes format when he wants to, to the format he wants to. And he'll
change it again. And again. And again. ...

Maybe another L.A. station with a more stable minded owner will eventually pick
