B-100 Memories

15 September 2010

Before Jack, and the original San Diego Star 100.7, there was KFM-BFM, B-100.

KFMB-FM started playing pop music as “B-100″ in March 1975, eventually knocking off longtime AM powerhouse KCBQ 1170 AM in fall of 1977, the latter being the big top 40 radio station in San Diego. B-100 also had major success in the 1980s, as one of the nation’s first “hot” adult contemporary stations, melding top 40 hits with an adult delivery by its high-profile air staff, including Gary Kelley, Gene Knight, Frank Anthony, morning show “The B-Morning Zoo with The Rich Brothers” featuring Bobby Rich.

Dave is the current programming head of KFMB-AM, and Frank can be heard on the Walrus-FM.
