Si "More and more of the classic hits 5 format is going to FM.

It was not 5 done extensively up until now be-8 cause of the availability of music, the sound wasnt good enough for FM." The quality sound is now available from compact discs and KLDZ will take advantage of the new recording technology to bring the music, dating from 1955 to 1972, into the 80s. "Well be virtually solid CD within three months," Thomas said. "We found a broadcasting source that has taken a whole bunch of oldies and remastered them in stereo on CD. It cost us a bundle, but I think it's going to be worth it" The station will be broadcasting 24 hours a day and is a subscriber to the TransStar Satellite Network. KLDZ will use the network programming to fill in until a full local staff is on board.

"It's very, very difficult to get people who understand this music and can relate to it," Thomas said. "We're going to open with the morning show and move into the rest of the day." The 6 am to 10 am show will be hosted by two Lincoln radio veterans, former KFMQ Program Director Tom Barker, KLDZ's assistant program director and music director, and former KLMS DJ J. Marshall Stewart, who left that station about two weeks ago to become production director and morning host at KLDZ. "I don't have any bad feelings about KLMS," Stewart said. "I just did not like what they were doing with the statioa I didn't like the emphasis on information.

I believe people who are listening to oldies want music and not a lot of talk." The morning show, which will include newscasts by Thomas, will be called "Stewart and Barker" and will Channels 0 Lincoln TV fid) CBS Omaha tJCB NBC Omaha 1 ICS ABC Omaha I I ABC Albion 13 ID CB8 Lincoln 13(3) ETV Lincoln CaCE) I nd Omaha (cc) Hearing captions 1 Poor of 2) Leueen Willoughby.

You won't hear Barker and me doing much talking, our crosstalk will be short," Stewart said. "Our concept is just to be ourselves, conversational and friendly. Our whole key is going to be the music. We want to provide quality without taking a shot at the competition." The station's listeners will probably "skew male," reflecting the tendency of men to listen to classic hits stations, Stewart said.

He said the high quality FM sound should give KLDZ a shot at doing well in the Lincoln radio market "I think we have a good chance. We'll never be the overall number one station in the market, but that's not what we're trying to do," Stewart said. "In the mornings, we can give everybody a run for their money." KLDZ is owned and operated by Tandem Communications. In addition to Thomas and Barker, Harley Lampman, president and general manager, and Ray Farrington, sales manager, are investors in Tandem Communications. All four formerly worked for either KLMS or KFMQ.

The group acquired KJUS-FM from its former owner, Sequel Corp. of Denver, early this year and since has received Federal Communications Commission approval for the transfer and change in call letters. The station also has received FCC approval to increase its power from 3,000 watts to 50,000 watts and to increase its tower height to 500 feet There is a chance that the power might be increased to 100,000 watts and the tower height raised to 1,000 feet, Thomas said. When the power increase occurs in a few months, the KLDZ signal will drop down a notch on the FM dial to 95.1 FM, a move so slight Thomas said most listeners will not notice.
