While there is still no word on the ultimate fate of KFMB-AM 760, it seems clear that iHeart Radio either has the frequency in the bag or it hopes to. According to one blogger, iHeart has "parked" the following web handles: 760KGB.com, 760 KGBSports.com, KGB760.com, KGBAM.com and Mighty760.com. When iHeart made all its recent on-air cuts at its other stations recently, some were wondering why no cuts were made at its sports station, KLSD 1360. The reason, clearly, is that they wanted to hit the ground running with a full sports talk staff should they get ahold of the 760 signal. If they do get it, they can just plop its fully functioning sports station on its new, superior signal. They would have to get rid of 1360-AM to it keep within the limits of how many stations one owner can own within any given market (eight). There may very well be no buyer for 1360. The 1450 AM signal has been on the market for three years and there have been no buyers. It has been dark since June. After 12 months of being dark (off the air) the owner must surrender the frequency to the FCC. The iHeart people may very well donate 1360 to a college, which is how Palomar College got to own 1320 AM. Clearly iHeart has in mind KGB-AM as the new call letters should it get 760 AM. Longtimers will remember when 1360-AM was KGB-AM. "136 KGB" was one of the first "Boss Radio" stations. Its success in 1964-65 prompted the owners of KHJ, Los Angeles to go Boss in 1965. In the 60s and early 70s, the big four stations in San Diego were all AM: KGB, KCBQ, KFMB and KOGO. — February 23, 2020 8:28 p.m.
Palomar, SDSU, City College – which one for future DJs?
It should also be noted that KSDS was nominated for jazz station of the year awards in 2004, 2005, and 2008.— March 4, 2020 8:44 a.m.
Palomar, SDSU, City College – which one for future DJs?
KSDS does have a student station, but it only goes on out on a HD2 channel which you need a special radio for. Those students may be getting experience but they don't get to get experience on the main station. That's why some students have moved to Palomar where they get experience on an actual broadcast station over traditional airwaves. Yes, KSDS provides a vital community cultural service. The question is, why should a community college district pay hundreds of thousands of dollars to prop it up? Why should it pay for those full time people while denying real education needs that aren't getting funded.— March 4, 2020 8:34 a.m.
Carlsbad Village Coins evicted from State Street
There has been some major news regarding this that came down today. Will share as soon as possible.— March 3, 2020 12:14 p.m.
Carlsbad Village Coins evicted from State Street
To Mike Murphy...I think it is safe to say there are no low rent options in Carlsbad.— February 28, 2020 1:19 p.m.
Carlsbad Village Coins evicted from State Street
Mr. "Waterstone,"...don't know what your good works has to do with anything. My point was, IF this eviction was malicious and had nothing to do with money or failure to pay rent on time, doesn't it seem like this is a major mistake for a developer who relies on public approval for the success of his business model? By the way, for being such a champion of the underdog, sure does seem like you awfully cynical.— February 27, 2020 5:19 p.m.
Carlsbad Village Coins evicted from State Street
Last night Sarah Lenhert told me this via email: "He is not the majority owner. Lenhert/Lakritz are majority owners." That may change some things don't you think "Waterstone."— February 27, 2020 10:58 a.m.
Carlsbad Village Coins evicted from State Street
Mr. Waterstone. You certainly have distinct and well formed views on this. Why don't you tell us who you are. What's your name? Also, do you think that this move was a prudent maneuver or a p.r. disaster considering Lakritz has projects that involve public approval? Mr. Lakritz is not the only owner by the way.— February 27, 2020 5:43 a.m.
Carlsbad Village Coins evicted from State Street
I am assuming but am not sure that her legal ground may be that Lakritz did not inform the other partners....which she says makes up 25%.— February 26, 2020 8:10 a.m.
Carlsbad Village Coins evicted from State Street
Socks....of course a tenant can be evicted. But if you want to be doing business in a public forum (like getting city council approval) and if what Sarah Lenhert is true regarding malicious intent, on what planet was this action a good business move?— February 26, 2020 5:53 a.m.
