KABC (AM)

KABC (790 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station licensed to Los Angeles, California. It serves as a West Coast flagship station for the Cumulus Media company. A pioneer of the talk radio format, the station went "all-talk" in September 1960, the second radio station to do so, a few months after KMOX in St. Louis. Despite different owners, KABC, KSPN and KABC-TV, (The local ABC owned-and-operated TV station) all maintain an informal partnership. KABC broadcasts in the HD (hybrid) format. The station airs local talk shows and news updates weekdays, with the nationally syndicated shows Jonathan Brandmeier and Red Eye Radio airing at night, from co-owned Westwood One Network. National news from Westwood One News is heard at the beginning of some hours. KABC also airs Los Angeles Kings professional hockey games. Doug McIntyre hosts the morning show, Drew Pinsky hosts in the early afternoons, and John Philips and Jillian Barberie are heard in the afternoon drive. In early mornings, the station simulcasts the news-heavy 4:30am half-hour of Today in L.A. from television station KNBC. KABC operates at 5,000 watts with a non-directional signal in the daytime but uses a directional antenna at night to protect other stations on 790. While the 790 signal adequately covered the Los Angeles media market in the 1960s and 1970s when KABC was often #1, the market has expanded greatly since then and the 5,000-watt signal may not be received clearly in all sections of the metropolitan area today. On March 31, 2016, KABC was granted an FCC construction permit to move to the KWKW transmitter site, increase day power to 6,600 watts and increase night power to 6,800 watts.On February 21, 2017 an application to modify the construction permit was accepted for filing. The night power would increase to 7,900 watts.
