Default Weird stuff...


A local High Desert radio station guide

http://www.highdesertinsider.com/html/radio.html

lists 105.3 FM Barstow as KIIS Top 40's

KIIS, of course, is 102.7 in Los Angeles.

105.3 Barstow (actually licensed to Yermo) is listed as KRSX, but it is
licensed to Citicasters, so it's possible that it might be a repeater or
translator. The listing is kinda weird (but then again, the
highdesertinsider web page isn't an official list).

I haven't heard any programming on 105.3 that sounds like Kiss FM but I'll
have to listen again and see what I can find. I may be a little too far
from Barstow to get a good signal though.

What really struck me as strange is that there seem to be no fewer than
five FCC licenses for stations on 105.3 in California with the calls
KITS-FM.

Do an FM Search on the FCC's website, on 105.3 in California, and you will
see KITS, KITS-FM1, KITS-FM2, KITS-FM3, and KITS-FM4 on 105.3.

KITS is San Francisco, FM1 is Walnut Creek, FM2 is Pleasanton, FM3 is
San Francisco, and FM4 is Antioch. All owned by Infinity...

Can someone explain this? I've never seen it before.
