KENO is the Las Vegas affiliate of the [[Jim Rome]] Show. The station is locally infamous for sloppy board work and interminable patches of [[dead air]]. Listeners are frequently treated to top-of-the-hour announcements that originate with the relevant syndicator and are not intended for over-the-air broadcast. Examples include "You are tuned to Premiere 2. The Jim Rome Show will begin at 6 minutes past the hour on the Premiere Radio Networks", which is routinely repeated every few seconds. Other snafus include failures to broadcast scheduled shows at certain times and the playing of multiple programs simultaneously. |
