1190? Does Dennis McBroom do "el tráfico" en español?

But probably 1480, too. Haven't heard them in drive yet.

Locally, KFNN airs Skyview newscasts. Otherwise, stations throughout the state outside of Phoenix carry Skyview's Arizona News. You can find a list of state subscribers on the website above. Click on News Networks. (Skyview also provides California News.)
KJZZ subscribes to Skyview as well--Their anchors read the copy and use the cuts.

KRDE 94.1 (also locally heard) airs AZ NEWS NET 5 times a day including a 5 PM 6 minute newscast. Pretty good coverage of Phoenix metro news and a smattering state wide info. Great people to work with, very professional. We dont do the traffic reports as there is no audio feed available outside Phoenix.

1190 last year.

not that there's anything wrong with dennis, dave & dave.. they're the best in town and belong on ktar (in-house). ..but they shouldn't be on ktar with a different name than they use on all the other stations.

at the bottom of the hour, i'll be dialing through the channels and will hear the same guy giving the same report at the same time, on multiple frequencies. ..this is phoenix, right ? ..fifth largest city, the largest capital city in the us ?? ..i'd expect this on the show-low stations, but not phoenix.

when phoenix gets an 'all-traffic, all-the-time' station, will all the other stations continue with their traffic report snippits ?

there should be an 'all traffic & weather' station.

there should be an 'all information station for arizona lifestyle & events'

there should be an 'all news, all the time' station for phoenix.

in the years to come, there should be a few available frequencies for the above formats; after all these cross-over music stations die off, because nobody wants to evolve music programming to this millennium. .."it's not familiar". .."we want to dumb-down america". .."keep it the same, same, same".

elvis & the beetles weren't "familiar". ..how the heck did they make it to the airwaves? ..i guess radio was different back then.?? ..programmers took risks to "brake the format".
