transformation into XTRA 1079 After nearly 20 years in Sacramento last weekend K108 ceased to exist The radio station was christened XTRA 1079 following a period of dwindling ratings and research surveys that indicated listeners desired some changes General Manager John Geary said the plan is for XTRA 1079 to have a more sound He said represents the unexpected bonus listeners will receive Operations manager Don Daniels said songs from the 1970s and (though mostly from the 1980s) will be featured on XTRA 1079 About 25 percent of the K108 play list has been junked (mostly the sleepy ballads) Earlier this year in an effort to rid itself of the perception the station quit playing songs from the 1960s The changes put the new XTRA 1079 on a collision course with Y92 (KGBY FM 925) top-rated adult contemporary format station Geary said XTRA 1079 was born from listener research not a desire to duplicate recent success but its competitor convinced no question coming right at us said Rick Eytcheson general manager ofY92 sounds like just taken our play list an indication of the same lack of creativity over there that got them into this highest-rated adult contemporary station just 18 months ago K108 took a nosedive soon thereafter and presently trails its two competitors the upbeat Y92 and Mix 96 (KYMX FM 961) which features mellow ballads After a similar series of changes about two years ago Y92 (formerly known as KAER) rose from 10th place to second among listeners age 25-54 During that same period the old K108 dropped from third to eighth One of shrewdest moves was heavy promotion of its talented morning team of Paul Robins and Phil Cowan now in their sixth year of entertaining the morning-drive audience On Monday XTRA 1079 debuted its new morning man Jim Carmichael and began a heavy TV promotional campaign just at the front end of the morning ALMOST i josTJatievuP ToaBTA AM IM TWt X6OH YOJ HO AHV HO PAST YOlfU' IAMOOW AtiP rn mwes mu ffcK ioufi
