It seems like Sal is trying to do one up on KOST by playing all holiday music a month early instead of waiting until November.

Is this where I say what I always do?
Saul will always do whatever he wants. He has no debt service and no stockholders to please.

I'm sure all five people listening to it will be excited.
Here's the thing about that The HD3 as K-Surf Oldies has listeners. In fact in the latest 6+ PPM they had a 0.2 share with a cume of 49,000. The month before was a 0.3 share. We'll see how many stick around when the November book comes out
That's probably a good idea as this year Costco had Xmas merch on display by the first of August!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'll bet that's just a guesstimate as I don't think that there are that many HD listeners...
I thought that was year round.
I stand corrected . Anyway that's a waste of airwaves.
Am I the only one entertained by the fact that a guy who happens to be Jewish loves Christmas music?
Because up until last year, he also regularly flipped GoCountry 105 to Christmas in November.
I read an interview with his son Michael that they don't see it as a religious thing. I get that.

Indeed. L.A. Oldies K-SURF (HD3) and K-Mozart Classical (HD2) are the two formats that have proven their ability to recruit a dedicated audience. The only options that should be toyed with are HD4, which is currently The Surf, a smooth jazz station - and AM 1260, which is currently back to broadcasting the K-Mozart classical format, which returned to the KMZT-AM in April 2025 after a period as a Classic Country station.
I guess if he ever changes the formats to the Blues he could call it The Smurf.
Hey, if Saul really wants to have some fun with this. How about adding a 'Hanukkah song of the hour'. There's no shortage of it. Music to spin your draedl by...

It has been all Christmas 365 days a year for at least 4 years now. They pushed KIXI to the HD3 at that time.
Say what??? Christmas music is MORE important than KIXI!? I think not.
When KIXI goes all ho-ho-ho after Thanksgiving., there will be three Christmas music choices on 106.9. Forget the rest, the best will be on HD3... 🎄 🎁
Lately HD4 has expanded their playlist, including Motown. Right now it's My Girl by the Temptations. But I've even heard a Toni Braxton song. In addition to the smooth jazz songs mixed in.
