From what I understand, this station switched to news/talk on April 5th. Joins the brand new KCAF 990 am 'Main Street Radio' news talk station that began last month. (http://www.990mainstreet.com/) 660 am offers national talk shows, while 990 am offers local shows of Kevin McCarthy and freeper David Gold.

This is great news, it has never been better in DFW talk radio. One of the benefits of all those new residents coming in(150,000 a year), bigger market size induces more competition. Hopefully we'll be able to support all these options.

This might be worthy of a texas ping

I should be clear, AFAIK, 660am and 990am are not affiliated, but rather will be vigorous competitors.

However for us listeners, both are great additions.

FYI, 570 KLIF has added Tony Snow's radio show from 7-10pm weeknights (Michael Savage moves over to 660am). So instead of wasting time getting angry at that idiot Bill O'Blowhard, turn off the TV and tune in to a real conservative.

David Gold subs for the locals here in Houston, he's very entertaining.

Good news.

Metroplex bump.

Thanks, Ill check it out from the Fort.
I like this conservative radio trend.

Great News:
Just checked out the site and found out that they stream their broadcasts.
DFW is just a bit too far away for good reception, live near Brownwood.

Thanks for posting it..

Thanks. I will definitely check this out, especially for Laura.

I haven't heard David Gold in ages. Need to check him out also. He was on KLIF before it went downhill.

Yes, I heard a caller from Dallas 660 on Micheal Medved's show the other day, saying it was a new station. You should listen to his show, he challenges any liberal/demo to call him and disagree with his conservative point. He intellectually slaps them around. I think its the best conservative-outreach program I've ever heard. I hope alot of long time Dems listen to his show and realize that conservatism is their ideological home.

Is Rush still run on a tape delay in Dallas?

[Diddle E. Squat]

Please tell us about 990 am's new show from 8-10pm, 'Chevas(sp?) and Joe'. I only heard a part of your interview, but it sounded like they are going to do a local Dallas show from a minority conservative's perspective, is that correct?

[GeronL]

990 is home of David Gold. If I have trouble picking up 990am (usually after Davids show is over) I will switch to 660am. =o)

[HitmanLV]

Hey,

What ever happened to the liberal radio network? It just vanished from media coverage in a little over a week.

[Redbob]

This station stole Michael Savage away from KLIF-570, but 570 gets the last laugh:

They replaced Michael with Tony Snow!
570 AM: 7PM - 10PM

I thought this was linked here already:

Freeper David Gold Returns To DFW Airwaves

Well, it is NOW, anyway !

[computerjunkie]

Thanks for posting this! I now listen to Bill Bennett's show in the mornings and really enjoy it! He actually let's callers finish a thought, and there aren't several people talking (screaming?) at each other at the same time! It's really a refreshing change, and I didn't know about the station until you posted this!
