Yakima Valley Newstalk Leader KIT Now Available On The Fm Dial

Yakima, WA – November 9, 2011 – Other stations have come and gone, but News Talk 1280 KIT has remained at the same place on the radio dial for over eight decades, bringing the community the best news and talk radio. On November 15th KIT makes its debut with a simulcast on the FM dial at 99.3. Local news, talk, information and sports are the cornerstones of our programming along with a long heritage of community involvement.

“1280 reaches over 28,300 listeners each week yet many residents of the Yakima Valley don’t turn on the AM band. News Talk on the FM band will add a new audience and increase the coverage of this heritage brand,” commented Townsquare-Yakima General Manager Cheryl A. Salomone.
