Capital Broadcasting has dropped Conservative Talk on 1430 KLO Ogden/Salt Lake City and is currently stunting with Christmas Music as it prepares to flip to Adult Standards as “Unforgettable 1430” after the holidays.
KLO had been airing an all-syndicated lineup including Hugh Hewitt, Laura Ingraham, Dennis Prager, Michael Medved, and Mike Gallagher. The new Standards format will feature programming from Westwood One’s “America’s Best Music” network.

semoochie says: It just occurred to me that the biggest problem with Adult Standards is that many in its target audience can no longer hear well enough to listen!
Mark says: It seems to me that a lot of the standards stations today are more like soft AC or pre-Beatles oldies stations, as they go less on Glenn Miller and Sinatra and more on doo-wop ballads, Neil Diamond and the Carpenters–without playing Adele or Bruno Mars (although you might some Michael Buble).
david in utah says: The America’s Best Music format that KLO is airing is much more like soft A/C than adult standards. They play 1 or 2 songs from Sinatra, Dean Martin, or a 60’s instrumental each hour, and the rest is mostly soft A/C music from the 1960’s through the 1990’s. Think Barry Manilow, the Carpenters, Steve Tyrell, and Michael Buble, and you’ll have the general idea.
