Lonestar. 92.5

Because the things you mentioned are probably more likely to be heard on the relaunched KEGL now and iHeart wants to differentiate between the two stations somewhat
Metallica in heavy rotation on KEGL...every two hours. Same with 90s alt.
KZPS is more 70s/80s. More traditional rock.
As I said in another thread, the two stations are being coordinated so one doesn't steal from the other.
BTW this might get more response on the Dallas board:

What about classic rock from the 60’s??
Infrequently. I saw Jumpin' Jack Flash, which I think is 1967 on KZPS.
Nothing that old on KEGL.
Of the three "classic rock" formats iHeart produces (70s Classic Rock, 80s Classic Rock, and 90s Classic Rock), only "70s Classic Rock" plays anything from the 60s, and only one an hour (and it's described as a "late 60s" track). Lonestar is more likely to be running the 80s Classic Rock logs or something produced in-house featuring 70s and onward.
Comparing their playlist from the week of April 2 before relaunch of Eagle to to the past seven days.
Metallica went from 17 spins to 3. Nirvana from 19 spins to 1. Red Hot Chili Peppers from 20 to 1. So not completely removed, but severely cut back. Looks like the changes were made right after Memorial Day.
Not every station uses the national "custom" logs. Many are still uniquely programmed for their markets.
So the changes didn't affect the May book (which was unchanged from April).
Will this station play Iron Maiden? I saw they played Dio’s “Rainbow In The Dark “ the other day
