American General Media has moved News/Talk 1180 KERN Wasco-Greenacres/Bakersfield CA to 1230, while retaining its translator 96.1 K241CI Bakersfield.
The move shifts the Talk programming from the 10kW directional 1180 signal to the 1kW 1230 signal. KERN was originally on 1410 until moving to 1180 in 2008. The signal downgraded from 50kW day to 10kW in 2023. It will continue to be heard on its 250 watt translator 96.1
K241CI.
What is now KERN had been Sports 1230 KGEO. While its call letters have moved to 1180, that signal has been taken silent for what AGM says are “technical reasons”. The Sports programming will continue to be heard on 101.1 K266CG Bakersfield now fed by 94.1 KISV-HD2.
