HEADLINE: RADIO UCLA
BODY:
In his On the Radio column May 7 John Horn criticized the
number of records stored in the KLA air studio as being a small collection,
which demonstrates his failure to understand KLA's intention to present a tight
format consisting of only UCLA's favorite albums.
He also mentioned that KLA broadcasts volleyball with obvious sarcasm. But he
failed to mention that volleyball is only one portion of KLA's all-encompassing
Bruin sports coverage that includes UCLA football, basketball and exclusive
coverage of UCLA baseball, totaling more than 100 games per year.
Finally, Horn severely misinterprets the ability to receive KLA's
"weak" signal. Any of the 6,000 UCLA dorm students can receive KLA
without the fear that it might not "ricochet" correctly. Also, Group W
cable estimates that nearly 40,000 homes can currently receive KLA.
