The upgrade will further enhance KSTM's signal in northern and western parts of the Valley, Artigue said. KSTM's federally assigned frequency is FM 107.1, but with a mere 3,000 watts of power, the Apache Junction station had a hard time hitting parts of the Valley until the translator went in last year. Meanwhile, contemporary KLZI (FM99.9) is awaiting action from the Federal Communications Commission regarding a protest it filed last year over the installation of the translator. KLZI went to the FCC in September after receiving complaints from listeners' that the translator's signal was interfering with its signal in north Phoenix.

Also sounding better this week is oldies outlet KOOL-FM (94.5), which received a new tower and antenna system over the weekend. committed to attend, including Channel 3 sportscaster and ex-Met Ron Swoboda. Proceeds from the game will benefit the Phoenix Memorial Hospital Foundation. KNTS VACANCY Daytime newstalk outlet KNTS (1510 AM) is without a news director following the layoff of Andy McKinney, whose exit reduces the size of the full-time air staff to only three people. KNTS station manager Bob Baker has assumed McKinney's morning host chores as a result of the shakeup.

He explained the change at the ABC TalkRadio outlet by saying McKinney "is just not a morning personality." However, McKinney attributed the dismissal to shaky station finances: "They said, 'We have to make a cutback and you're it. We just don't have the Asked if a money shortage was behind McKinney's ouster, Baker replied, "No, it isn't. Monetary concerns were not the overriding reason at all." McKinney reportedly earned $300 a week working for KNTS. SOUNDING BETTER Some recent fine-tuning of the electronics by the owner of album-rock KSTM's translator has resulted in an improved signal at FM 99.3. "It's not anywhere near what it's going to be," said KSTM general manager Chuck Artigue, explaining that translator operator The resignation of Alvidrez did not surprise Channel 10 general manager Jack Sander.

"I think there's a close allegiance with Bill Miller," he said. "You go over to Channel 3 and there's no place to go but up. You stay here and there's a lot more downside risk." Meanwhile, Sander said a decision has not been reached on whether Channel 10 will release Miller from his contract with the station, which doesn't expire until mid-July. Alvidrez was not under contract and can move to Channel 3 immediately. DREAM GAME '86 Organizers of Dream Game '86, a charity baseball contest pitting players from the 1969 Chicago Cubs against members of the '69 New York Mets, hope to seal a deal this week that will put the Feb.

16 game at Phoenix Municipal Stadium on national television. ESPN and Tribune Broadcasting, which owns cable-delivered WGN-TV in Chicago, are considering the game, according to Dick Rasmussen, marketing director of Phoenix Memorial Hospital. "There's been interest from both. ESPN would probably do it on a (tape-)delay basis," Rasmussen said Monday. "Tribune, would probably do it live." Rasmussen reported that nearly all of the players from the two clubs have Another off-air newsman who helped make NcwsCentcr 10 at KTSP-TV (Channel 10) the top-rated news department in town is jumping ship.

If the trend keeps up, most of "The Team" will belong to Eyewitness News at KTVK-TV (Channel 3) by autumn. Last week, Channel 10 news director Bill Miller was lured from the CBS affiliate to become station manager of Channel 3. On Tuesday, the ABC affiliate announced the hiring of Channel 10's assistant news director, Phil Alvidrez, as news chief of Eyewitness News. Alvidrez, who has been with Channel 10 for 12 years, is expected to start work at Channel 3 on Monday. Members of "The Team" at Channel 10 and Eyewitness News troops were told of his hiring Tuesday.

Alvidrez will replace the departed Kirk Winkler, who was fired last week for failing to lift Channel 3's newscasts out of the ratings basement during a 27-month stay. "They offered me a job and I decided to take it," said Alvidrez, who cited the challenge "of seeing if you can contribute and improve the competitive situation" as his reason for accepting Channel 3's offer. Offering a thumbnail assessment of Eyewitness News, Alvidrez said, "My gut Reeling is that they've improved a heck of a lot under Kirk Winkler. There's been some sort of a foundation laid there." However, the arrival of a new boss (in this case, bosses) always raises questions about whether current talent will be retained. When asked if there are any sacred cows at Channel 3, Alvidrez said he would be unable to respond fully until he is able to study the contracts of news personnel.

"Should anyone over there be fearful of their job? I would hope not," he said. Co-anchor Frank Robertson's two-year contract expires in April, and a third-year option hasn't been picked up yet. The reported contract of co-anchor Mary Jo West, who formerly worked for Miller and Alvidrez at Channel 10, runs out at the end of August B.OOP.M.ADV 12 BLACKE'S MAGIC Season Premiere Starring Hall Linden 8:00 P.M.
