dolariI love how KONO radio in San Antonio of setup. It's been on 860AM since the 50s, and has been a 50s/60s/70s oldies station since the late 70s.
In the 90s, they picked up the 101.1FM frequency and simulcast on both.
Now as the years went on, they kept with the oldies format, but the oldies became the 80s and 90s. And, as mom said, KONO isn't what it used to be. And I guess KONO heard them because they split into KONO-FM and KONO-AM. FM is still an oldies format. But the AM ONLY plays 50s/60s/70s. In stuffy mono. Just like they did in the 70s.
Nice little compromise there: the old fogeys get their muffled mono oldies, and those of us aging FAR more gracefully get our crystal clear stereophonic oldies. ;)
