Neither. i dont know why univision feels we need another one.

Huh? Another one? They already have one, KAMA.
 
Mega 101, just becuase it was the first one with good signal. XO has a terrible signal and KAMA is a copy cat.
 
Trick question the only one is Mega right??????

How can a format that is nearly 50 years old in Latin America be either original or a copy?

You know what I was taking about, dont act like you dont. KAMA copied the format here in houston from KLOL. KLOL had this format first then KAMA came up because Univision saw that KLOL had better and still has better ratings.

Univision's WKAQ / WKAQ-FM have been doing Spanish langauge CHR since 1968... KLOL is a newcomer to the format.

Uh this is a houston radio topic, not Puerto Rico. And the question was about the houston stations. So KLOL is the best..

The Spanish CHR format was pretty much invented at XERC, Radio Exitos, in Mexico City in about 1962. I interned there in 1953 and I can tell you KLOL is neither original nor the first.

With KLOL down to 4th among Spanish stations in 18-34 and 18-49, saying it is the best is also a bit of hyperbole.

Okay im just saying my favorite is XO .... not just b/c i work there..but we were the first ones here in houston with pop station... and... well...yeah..hahah
 
I'm an XO fan myself. Two reasons come to mind:

1. I live in Beaumont, so obviously the signal is flawless in my neck of the woods.

2. They play more of the rock that I like (Caifanes, Molotov, Heroes del Silencio).

As an aside, I'm not a fan of the pitching Mega applies to their songs; I've never heard a Spanish-language station where the artists bordered on sounding like they were loaded with helium. But who am I to argue with their success?
 
we all know i dont work for UNIVISION but im going to have to say that KAMA is a far better station imaging and music wise and there talents are far better then kqqk
 
i honestly think we are so much better than KAMA ....but thats my opinion..

Well yeah, I agree with you on this. KLOL is a copy of XO and KAMA is a COPY OF KLOL.

Liberman's specialty is regional Mexican; even his TV operation is based in the lifestyle. It's not particularly amazing that any station would be better than what they would do outside their area of expertise.
 
have you seen xo's numbers? the morning show on kama doubles xo in every demo and thats xo's biggest rated day part so that has to tell you something! Its a tired chemistry that xo uses on the morning show the whole lets fight on the air to get ppl talking yeah thats not original.Plus xo uses words on the air that kama and Klol never use on the air la chaketa,masturbation, etc etc they try to push the envelope but at the end of the day can't reflect it in numbers!
 
im not worried about XO's number... the only thing it messes it up is the signal...XO still better than KAMA
