It’s not the content I write about. It’s the sound and engineering quality. There is none. I live in North Oxnard, about 4 – 5 miles from their station. With a decent AM radio, there is a noticeable hum, at all times, in their sound. What’s up with that? This is the premier AM station in the Ventura/Oxnard area. ALSO, I listen to KVTA, both at my PC and my bedside radio through the internet. The hum is also broadcast through the internet! In addition to the annoying hum, you have the following: during their morning broadcast with Spence and the boys the volume varies greatly between various segments. For instance when Spence and Stickboy are speaking, the volume is fine. However when Paul Tranquillo reads the news, his voice is very, very low volume, barely audible. But when Paul plays a recording of an interview, the volume BLASTS. At your bedside at 5:30 in the morning this is quite annoying. Ventura County deserves better than this KVTA, you need some engineering over there! UPDATE-Recently MARCH2013KVTA went to 1590 on the dial. The signal is noticeably cleaner without the hum. Good job KVTA1590! HOWEVER-they are not on the internet at this point. I would like to wake up to local news thru my internet radio. Contact iheart radio and get it on the internet!
