Owned by Lotus Communications, KTMZ simulcasts Los Angeles-based KWKW (1330 AM), carrying that station's "Noticias & Deportes" news/talk and sports format.
It also carries live Spanish-language broadcasts of Los Angeles Rams NFL football and Orange County SC USL Championship soccer.
[4] KKAR originally was a daytimer station, running 250 watts by day and required to go off the air at night, because 1220 AM is a Mexican clear channel frequency reserved for XEB in Mexico City.
The KKAR intellectual unit moved to 1510 kHz as KNSE; at the same time, Gore Broadcasting, Inc., acquired the frequency and relaunched it as a Christian radio outlet, KLIT.
[16] (Personal Achievement briefly held the call letters KWPA, KXPA and KYPA, all in Los Angeles, for the stations it owned.)
The KWKU nominal main studio in Pomona proved critical to getting KWKW back on the air after disaster struck on December 6, 2001.
A major fire at the Sunset Vine Tower, which was home to the Lotus Communications Los Angeles cluster, caused extensive electrical damage to the building.
105 computers, mixers and other equipment were carted out of the building, and John Cooper, the chief engineer for Lotus Los Angeles, drove them to Pomona, where the station was back on the air in six hours.
