KRLA Is Now "The Answer"

[Lee Anderson]

 I've been listening to it for the past few days. The one thing that stikes me is the lack of callers. there are lots of endless monologues and not much else.

@David: Speaking of legal ID's: Here in New York, the "Answer" station here is doing something interesting in that they give out the NASDAQ symbol for station owner Salem Communications. Are they doing likewise on the West Coast? Or would they even be able to, considering they're probably doing a dual legal ID for KRLA and KTIE?

@DToTheJ: Yes. KRLA has been doing the SALM on the NASDAQ bit for about a month now, and that has continued with the rebranding this week to The Answer. I do not listen to KTIE, who's signal comes from nearly 60 miles east of Downtown Los Angeles. KRLA and KTIE are NOT simulcasting, however they carry much of the same programming and the new AM Drive show airs on both stations. However, both stations have their own TOH and :30 newscasts.
