The only Spanish CHRs in the US are in Puerto Rico, which is 100% Spanish dominant and can support the high cumes needed to compensate the low TSL that CHRs have in any langauge.

This is sort of what Superestrella, the Entravision format, does. However, it survives mostly due to its morning show and the music dayparts are very weak. In LA, they are 6th or 7th Spanish station in music dayparts.
This format, without tons of reggatón, does not work.

Tropical as anything but an oldies format for over 35 year olds is dead, even in Puerto Rico where there is no longer a current based tropical station. Obviously, on the West coast there are not enough people to support this... although it might appear on an HD-2 channel.
