As many of you know, the fantastic broadcasters we're blessed with at Sac State have been cursed with being aired by a terrible AM purgatory channel that changed formats every two weeks.

FINALLY, we have a FM station flagship and AM affiliate. No more terrible reception in Downtown Sac, woohoo!!!!

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — The Sacramento State football team will have a new radio home in 2011 as the athletic department has signed a two-year contract with Classic 93.1 (KHLX).

The new station, which is part of the Clear Channel family, will provide a strong signal to listeners throughout the greater Sacramento area extending as far south as Stockton and west into Fairfield.

"We are very excited to be able to partner with Classic 93.1 for the upcoming season," Sacramento State Director of the Athletics Terry Wanless said. "Our goal during this process was to find a station that will provide strong coverage for our fans in and around Sacramento."

As part of the agreement, each of Sacramento State's 11 regular season football games will begin with a 15-minute pregame show. There will also be a postgame recap which will feature game highlights.

Classic 93.1 and its sister station, KFBK 1530 AM, will also provide promotions during the week providing information for the upcoming game. KFBK sports director Pat Walsh will air an interview with Hornet head coach Marshall Sperbeck during each week beginning on Aug. 29.

Along with Classic 93.1, Sacramento State football games can also be heard on KAHI 950 AM in the foothills. The addition of KAHI to the Hornet Radio Network will allow Sacramento State football games to be heard over the radio from Lake Tahoe into the San Joaquin Valley.

Sacramento State begins its season on Saturday, Sept. 3, against Oregon State at 1 p.m. The team's first home game will come on Saturday, Sept. 24, against Montana.

ALSO, those who have the iHeartRadio application for iPhone or other smartphones can listen to 93.1 FREE. I'm ready with my docking station, laptop, and HDMI cable to watch the away games!
 
Fantastic news and a good sign for the program. Last year, I could barely get 1380 in some parts of the Sac area. Drove me nuts!!
 
:clap:
Now if only that signal can reach a liiiittttllllle more south...oh say about another 500 miles. :lol:
 
I don't know if FM works the same as AM, but I can catch the awesome "Coach" John Kentera up in Lodi at night due to the bouncing signal.

Of course, if I try to catch Scott and BR in the morning, all I get is bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:mrgreen:
