My guess is the 960 frequency, Since Air America seems a bit Quakey.
And since Agnew is the Manager of "Sports Branding" for CC, (?) It would seem
very possible. They won't/can't interupt the Savage Wenie and his Million dollar
KNEW deal...KSFO doesn't need them, The Ticket could use them, but the new owners will make that decision. Then perhaps they are not on an AM station
at all...Hmmmmmm
