New station launches in Taos!!!

Hey everybody!

Taos has received yet another new station! This one is adult contemporary KLNN: Luna 103.7. I have waited for a long time to have an AC station here. It's amazing; nearly a year ago to the day, two radio stations, KKTC/K264AE and KVOT, launched here (I believe they officially launched on October 26th). So, in commemoration of the launch of this new radio station, I thought it would be interesting to give everybody a quick run-down on Taos radio.

KRZA-Based in Alamosa, Colorado. Community radio and NPR affiliate for northern New Mexico and southern Colorado. 88.7 FM.

91.1 (Arroyo Seco?) and 91.9 (Taos)-KUNM translators.

KKIT-"The Mountain." This radio station's format reminds me of The Peak. Moved from 99.9 FM in Angel Fire and translator K264AE on 100.7 FM in Taos to its new frequency on 95.9 FM last October. Nice-sized playlist.

KXMT-"Radio Exitos." Don't ask me to translate this; I have no clue what it means. Spanish music. 99.1 FM.

KKTC (Angel Fire)/translator K264AE (Taos)-Plays a Jones satellite feed of True Country. Mix of old and new country favorites. Launched last October.

KTAO-"World-famous solar (powered) radio." Plays a bunch of...eclectic music. From what I've cared to pay attention to, it seems like they have a pretty large playlist. 101.9 FM.

KLNN-"Luna." Adult contemporary. From what I've heard so far, it reminds me of Magic with a much larger playlist. :) They just launched, so there are no DJs yet, although they do say that they will be adding them in their promos.

Then, of course, we can pick up many Class C FM stations from Albuquerque, like Magic, the Peak, Ed, KIOT, Big Oldies, etc. with a decent receiver and antenna. We can also pick up stations like KBOM, KQBA, and KSFQ from Santa Fe/White Rock.

And it looks like that's a wrap!
 
Gee, sounds like Taos is ripe for a hostile takeover. I wonder if those are stations being started up for speculation value?
