Channel 103.1
Настоящее имя: Channel 103.1
Adult Alternative Album radio station format simulcast on FM sister stations KACD and KBCD in Los Angeles and Orange County, California, both heard on the 103.1 frequency.
At 5 p.m. on October 19, 1998, the station adopted the adult album alternative (AAA) format, programmed by Nicole Sandler. The format was launched with a speech by Sandler. The first song played was "People Get Ready" by Ziggy Marley. The station was branded "Channel 103.1" with the slogan "World Class Rock". Program director Nicole Sandler was also afternoon DJ and Andy Chanley, previously with KLYY (Y107), handled the morning shift.
In 2000, after Clear Channel merged with AMFM, the company would own too many stations in the Los Angeles area, according to Federal Communications Commission rules. It was decided that KACD and KBCD would be sold, due to their small listenership, the fact that they counted as two stations, and the fact that they did not cover the entire Los Angeles market. Channel 103.1 would continue to be heard on the internet, on a full-time web stream at channel1031.com and worldclassrock.com, which lasted until August 2001. "Channel 103.1" also began to air on AM 850 KACD in Thousand Oaks, California, primarily for the purposes of music-licensing, and to keep the station listed in Arbitron.
