As KFAC-FM wound down operations, other stations have been wooing its listeners. San Diego’s KFSD-FM (94.1), which broadcasts classical music 24 hours a day, placed an ad on KFAC touting it as “Classical Music for San Diego--And Now for Orange County.” General manager Nancy Reynolds says with its 100,000-watt signal, KFSD can be heard “loud and clear” in southern Orange County and along coastal cities as far north as Malibu. However, the 100,000-watt station is sandwiched on the dial between two country formats: Orange County’s KIKF-FM (94.3) and Los Angeles’s KZLA-FM (93.9), and in some parts of Orange County listeners who try to tune in the classical station get country classics instead.
