Stations plan new formats

Thursday, March 11, 1999 | 10:48 a.m.

Dallas-based Heftel Broadcasting Corp., the largest Spanish language broadcaster in the nation, has bought a second Las Vegas radio station.

KISF 103.5-FM was bought by Heftel for $20.3 million. When the deal closes within two months, the 100,000-watt FM station will adopt the format of KLSQ 870-AM, Heftel's current Spanish-language station. KLSQ, a 10,000-watt station, will take on a new format, also in Spanish.

Jose Valle, general manager of Heftel Las Vegas, said KLSQ's programming has been extremely popular and putting it on the FM band should develop a larger audience.

KISF currently operates a rhythm-and-blues and classic soul music format.
