Reactions from San Diegans

[edit]

After the format move to 570, many who live in the San Diego area had complained that they were unable to get the station's new signal, fueling the complaint that AM 570 had "Los Angeles-ized", and no longer catered to San Diego's sports teams and listeners.

This also came to the attention of Premiere Radio Networks, Jim Rome's syndicator; XEPRS-AM, "the Mighty 1090," a rival radio station that broadcasts in San Diego and parts of Orange County and Los Angeles (and run by the Broadcast Company of the Americas, whose CEO John Lynch administered XTRA Sports Radio in San Diego from the mid 1980s to its merger with 1150 in 2002), picked up The Jim Rome Show in September 2005.

As the radio flagship home of the Los Angeles Lakers, KLAC normally put much more emphasis and focus on the team, possibly very much to the chagrin of listeners who are not supporters of the Lakers. This was especially evident in the midday program The Loose Cannons, then headlined by Hartman, Jacobs and Laker radio broadcaster and former player Mychal Thompson.
