[edit] History
KAVL came on air as locally programmed Sports Radio 610. In 1998, Jacor Communications acquired the radio station along with KAVS and KYHT. KAVL was made as a simulcast of KXTA-AM, "XTRA Sports 1150," in Los Angeles, California. Some of KAVL's programming was simulcast on 1220 AM in Santa Clarita (today KHTS).
Sometime after the Jacor/Clear Channel merge, the simulcast ended; since then, KAVL's lineup consists nearly entirely of Fox Sports Radio programs. However, KAVL also airs the Bob & Tom morning show from Indianapolis.
Also on KAVL are radio broadcasts of the Los Angeles Dodgers and the National Football League (through Westwood One).
