	KFBK Broadcast History
		KFBK is the 50 kW flamethrower on 1530 in Sacramento, California.
		KFBK seems to derive from KVQ, which under the sensibilities of 1922, shut down after listener complaints about interference.
		KFBK is the only station "officially" (according to the FCC) using the Franklin style antenna - two 180 degree towers stacked vertically.

	KFBK - Davis Wiki
		Tom Sullivan and Rush Limbaugh were both on KFBK in the mid 80s, and Rush looked to him as somewhat a mentor.
		KFBK also funds two traffic spotter planes which are part of the CHP network of traffic reporters.
		The broadcast license for KFBK was issued on 2-2-22 (Feburary 2nd, 1922), and they still have a engineer's shack that at one time fabricated metal parts to keep the station running.

	SFGate: Politics Blog : This is a test of the Emergency Alert System: Vote for Dick Mountjoy!
		In an apparent violation of FCC rules, conservative talk radio station KFBK 1530 AM in Sacramento transmitted a paid political advertisement to an unknown number of other stations in the area, using the federal Emergency Alert System (EAS), thus automatically forcing the ad onto the stations' airwaves.
		KFBK 1530 AM in Sacramento is the Local Primary (LP) station designated to initiate the broadcast of EAS messages in several Northern California counties, including Yolo.
		This morning, KFBK initiated the required monthly test of EAS but failed to cease broadcasting via EAS upon the standard message of EAS conclusion ("This concludes this test of the Emergency Alert System").

	The Tom Sullivan Show - Talk To Tom During His Radio Show
		Someone high up at KFBK should lose they’re job not mark, mark was by far was up in the ranks with tom, art bell, and Michael savage.
		Btw: Before I departed for my adventure in the army I used to listen to KFBK news religiously, in the mornings awaiting for commander bill and Joe meano (sp?) now I come back home to the valley and they are no longer on, what a disappointment.
		Liberalism really is a disease and KFBK is infected, and to think, I actually gained respect for kfbk when they switched to FOX news source for global & national news.

		KFBK’s broadcast studio, in a building complex just across the road from Cal Expo, is a dimly lit node on the collective media consciousness.
		KFBK, consistently the top rated local station among listeners 12 years old and over, carries four political talk show hosts; three, including Mark Williams, are profoundly conservative.
		KFBK has a reporter at the scene, and in the studio Williams goes over his notes, checks Web sites and confers with Night Talk Live producer Brandi Brady and Stephenson before the start of the show.

	RW Online - Product Evaluation
		For Clear Channel's News Talk 1530, KFBK, a major news talker in Northern California, the distance between Modesto and our RPU receive sites is beyond line of site, and phone/ISDN lines are not always available.
		If you are doing a live hit from the airport concourse or a concert where up-close or concentrated cell activity may clobber your line integrity, you might be best off having a POTS or ISDN backup in place for safety.
		KFBK is part of the Clear Channel News Network and we feed pieces to the ABC Radio Network.

	CHP and Broadcasters Work Out Glitches in AMBER Alert System (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-28)
		At KFBK Radio, an alert from the California Highway Patrol came in on the wrong system, and never actually became an AMBER Alert activation.
		At KFBK, where all AMBER Alerts will be received and then sent out to other local media outlets, chief engineer Ross du Clair says a final test has proven the system is now up and running.
		KFBK's engineers and others have set up a temporary workaround with the CHP that should allow the AMBER alert system to work.

	Ross Revenge - Transmitter Room - KFBK and KOH early Ampliphases
		Several references are made to an existing 50KW design at KFBK, at which "several years of operatng experience" proved the "feasibility of screwdriver tuning adjustments".
		The KFBK designed used a "rather complex vacuum tube RF voltage regulator", in much the same way as RCA's Ampliphase models when they were released a few years later.
		It is interesting to note that KFBK in Sacramento later installed a BTA-50H, approx 20 years after they built their own.

	21Q - A familiar voice back at KFBK
		Nearly six years after breaking our hearts by leaving for the big time in LaLa Land, Amy Lewis is returning to KFBK (1530 AM) next Wednesday to replace the departed Chris Lane on the morning news.
		Longtime KFBK listeners will remember the halcyon days when Dave Williams and Lewis hosted the station’s nascent morning-news show, propelling it to a ratings nirvana.
		And now that her kids are older - and that Lane’s spot is open - she and station honchos figured it was the right time to come back.

		After the termination of longtime conservative KFBK / Sacramento host Mark Williams (top right photo), that's what several political groups, as well as a prominent San Francisco talker, seem to be suggesting.
		Though "budget cuts" were originally cited as the reason for his departure, Williams was quickly replaced by an outspoken liberal, sparking suspicions about the real motivations behind the move.
		Williams produced solid numbers for KFBK, Sacramento's top-rated station, but his contract and added bonuses, called "talent fees," made him expensive for the station to keep, sources say.

		It certainly was never rock and roll or top 40 stations in my early grade school years in the sixties.
		I had the choice of news at KFBK, country at KRAK or top 40 at KWOD.
		From my radio experience, I learned there are three ways to program a radio station: the independent way (my way), the industry way and ways yet to be discovered.

	Act Now to Stop War & End Racism (ANSWER): Action Alert - Stop Mark Williams' Hate Speech & Incitement
		But in a time of war and conflict, when emotions are charged to a breaking point, his sort of extreme abuse of the public airwaves is even more problematic and irresponsible as it sets the ground for institutionalizing hate, while simultaneously inviting and inciting violence against communities.
		The 50,000-watt clear channel radio station of KFBK 1530 in northern California, where Williams goes on the air between 7-10 PM every weekday, reaches over 100-Million people in the western third of North and Central America.
		According to KFBK, their signal “covers an area from the northern most points of Alaska to the southern most point of Mexico, and east beyond the Rockies to Montana.”

	The Radio Equalizer: Brian Maloney: KFBK Sacramento, Mark Williams, Rush Limbaugh

		And KFBK is now hemorrhaging listenership (and sponsors) as a result.
		I have been unable to locate the daypart specifics, but KFBK went from 7.7 to 8.0 from Winter 2005 to Spring 2006.

	KFBK cancels racist hate-monger Mark Williams show: Sacramento for Democracy
		Mark was nothing more than a one trick pony, and angry white guy with a microphone, preaching the same handful of messages to his choir of sycophants ad infinitum.
		Working downtown, I've seen Mark going so far as to pass himself off as a KFBK "reporter" at anti-immigration, pro-war rallies and the public lynching of elected officials in order to further his special blend of xenophobia, hypocrisy and rage.
		Based on the hate, anger and illiteracy of their posts, I'd venture to say KFBK's management is probably better off, as well as the vast majority of listeners who don't share in the vitriol of your tired, knee-jerk ranting and raving.

		Towards the end of the three-hour program Mark Williams was heard to present his weekly Froggy Award to the "good people of the Philippines" followed by music and sounds made up of chicken clucking, monkeycalling (cheese-eating surrender monkeys), and the French National Anthem.
