Is KLKT still KLKT out of Incline Ville, NV

Maybe everybody is too young here to know about the original KLKT. Can anyone tell me about NextMedia out there since I'm in the midwest. I know they do own them.
 
Wow. Those calls haven't been around since about '90-ish...Next is no longer here. Wilkes bought those properties and finally took control last week and the changes have already begun.

How many owners have there been since then?

1. The Dave Newman Group,
2. The Scott Sidenstrictner group
3. The Next Media Group
4. Now Wilkes Broadcasting

My company back in 1983 provided a lot of theh broadcast equipment for KLKT.
I also sold Jim King an FM translator license for the top of Cal-Neva.

In addition I worked some weekeneds on the air for a number of months. I drove up from Sacramento so after a while it became impractial. However it was quite enjoyable, remember we played vynal!

Mickey Lees's is still in Kings Beach and has worked in valet parking at Cal-Neva and at many phone selling places.

Anyone else you would like to know about?

To Docwalker, what changes are going on at the former Next Media stations?

92.9 the rock now has a real name and direction. Straight ahead classic rock, very tight sweepers, and now called THE BANDIT. Rumor on the street is that Smooth Jazz is going away soon. Who knows what they'd put on that frequency.

Dear Chris,

We must have met and you must have known Valerie. She was the tall beautiful blonde and I was the tall brunette in sales. We were bookends! Just can't remember. Where is Jim King? Did you know our engineer. I can't think of his name, but we knew each other intimately.
