KRXA
KRXA (540 AM) is a radio station broadcasting a Spanish language Catholic radio format. Licensed to Carmel Valley, California, the station serves the Salinas - Monterey - Santa Cruz areas of Central California. It is owned by El Sembrador Ministries and broadcasts its Spanish-language ESNE Radio Catholic radio network.[2] By day, KRXA is powered at 10,000 watts. But because 540 AM is a Mexican and Canadian clear channel frequency, KRXA must greatly reduce power at sunset to 500 watts to avoid interference. The transmitter is on Old Stage Road in Salinas.[3] It uses a three-tower array directional antenna. HistoryOn July 19, 1987, the station signed on the air.[4] Its original call sign before it went on the air, as a construction permit, was KJCC. In 1995, after being purchased by Cypress Communications, KIEZ switched from a Spanish language KKLF simulcast to its own adult standards format.[5] From 2005 to 2012, the station had a progressive talk format. When KRXA was sold to El Sembrador, the progressive talk moved to RadioMonterey.com.[6][7] With the sale, KRXA switched to a Spanish language Catholic radio format. References
