KILT To FM

My question was if KESS and KKHT are normally on separate antennas on the same tower, or are combined into the same antenna? The antenna coordinates for both have a tiny difference.

Back on topic again: Thought occurred to me…will 95.7 shut off the stereo signal when The Fan launches? IIRC sportstalker sibling 105.3 The Fan in DFW is in mono, but I might be misremembering that. Easy to overlook the stereo indicator on car FM radios these days.

Normally both are on the same primary antenna. Each transmitter room has a rf line to the combiner then feeds a switch to the primary or aux antenna. there is no way to have each station on seperate antennas at this site due to the combiner / antenna switch.

you can turn off stereo pilot on the FM side, that will help will receivers with low signal in distant areas. did you see the sportsradio 610 video announcing the news and the GM of the station comes in to talk about the FMs of the company and taking over The Spot for Sports, she said it is a Big Risk, shouldnt have said that

During the announcement it was said that was the inspiration for the logo. But it is also a clone of the KWFN San Diego logo.

They really missed an opportunity with the KIKK call letters to have a unique brand. Especially with Football season close to KIKKing off and being the official home of the Texans. Nevermind that the World Cup came and went.

I have a soft spot for unique and quirky regional branding and find these generic, corporate cookie cutter brands to be bland and lacking local identity. But that's just my own selfish observation. I would've loved to see something along the lines of "95.7 The Kick".
