    Marvarla, the station jingles on KRTH are close to the old KHJ because the station was programmed for years by Bill Drake, the voice you hear on ” A Super 60’s Weekend”. Drake was one of the creators of the original Boss Radio sound, and this was not the only station they programmed as a Boss station, thus the Johnny Mann Singers doing the KGB jingle.

    Okay, I knew my mind hadn’t been playing tricks on me when I told a friend recently that “The KRTH-101 jingle is a total rip from the old KHJ’s!” Also, hearing the Tijuana radio I.D. with the girl’s voice, again, was *brilliant*: I think this was the first sentence I ever learned in Spanish! MARS-103 was a short-lived/great format, as was the ALL heavy metal station (which you missed :-) …but THANK YOU for posting ChuckJPC!!!

    great so cal memory. thanks

  24. …and I used to …
    …and I used to get KXO/KBLU/KYEL/KSWT (or whatever they’re called now) channel 13 from Yuma/El Centro in my home town Indio near Palm Springs. But in Feb. 2009, the national Digital TV transition will change everything about the local TV market.

    But radio reception in the Palm Springs area wasn’t the best, usually AM is dominated by the Mexican border and certain FM ones are on some radio sets, during certain times or required a weird FM antenna system facing west & south to San Diego. +

  25. Skiggley, AM/FM …
    Skiggley, AM/FM radio may become bland or mundane, but Southern Cal. has developed multicultural diversity as a result of immigration in the 1970s & ’80s, many Asian-language and an Iranian radio station from the San Fernando valley. Much of the local stations are now in Spanish, either from Mexico or within Sou. Cal. such as KLAX 97.9 and KUNA 96.7 Palm Springs. But what radio companies did in the 60s & 70s brought in “soul” and “blues” music from the Black community into the mainstream.+
