Should KCBS 740 AM or a station in the bay area with a strong signal should take over the radio broadcast rights to air the A's in 2007? WCBS 880 AM airs the Yankess. Why can't the same thing happen on KCBS?

I don't think KCBS would work, just because it's so news orientated. For me at least, whenever there is a traffic jam, I like the idea of hitting KCBS on my preset.
The A's radio stations plain and simply stink. I live in the Sunset of SF and can't hear a damn thing from either of the radios in my house.
It is an outrage.
Putting it on 106.9 is a great idea, but FM sports just seems a little unconventional. I'd like that a lot more.

When you're a playoff-bound team and can't even sell out your own stadium (except for this past weekend) even after reducing the capacity for baseball seating, it's not likely a 50kw stick is gonna want your games on. Sounds like the A's current broadcast arrangement is appropriate. If they ever get a new stadium and the Mausoleum is demolished, then they might go after a bigger stick.
1220 was supposed to go to 50k, but got tied-up in red-tape. The process has resumed and the increase & new transmitter site are moving forward... of course, that doesn't help for this season 
In defense of the A's, they HAVE sold-out the coliseum this year. Attendance has been great and the team has played well. Obviously.
The reason they aren't on a larger station is purely & simply $$$$
...and there's my 2cents

To clarify the above, the A's have sold out some games.
PS are the A's sweating after last night's comeback by the M's ?
