102.7 KIIS FM, Los Angeles (1980s-2006)

*KIIS FM stickers between 1980s and 2000s

102.7 KIIS FM is a commercial contemporary hit radio (CHR) radio station licensed to Los Angeles, California, USA. Owned by Clear Channel Media and Entertainment.

KIIS-FM (pronounced "Kiss FM") is the origin of the KISS-FM brand, and currently serves as the flagship station for On Air with Ryan Seacrest. The KIIS-FM studios are located in Burbank, while the station transmitter resides on Mount Wilson. Besides a standard analog transmission, KIIS-FM broadcasts over two HD Radio channels: streams online via iHeartRadio, and extends its on-air signal by using a single full-power repeater – KVVS (102.7 FM) in Rosamond. The station also simulcasts over channel 11 on both Sirius and XM Satellite Radio.

The spelling of "K-I-I-S" instead of KISS, was because it resembled the AM frequency: '1150' = 'IIS' (source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KIIS-FM.)

KIIS FM's tagline is "LA's #1 Hit Music Station."

KIIS FM weekday programming includes 'On Air with Ryan Seacrest' with Ryan Seacrest and Ellen K, and also Manny on the Streets on mornings (weekdays 5am-10am); Sisanie Reategui on mid-days (weekdays 10am-3pm); afternoon drive with Dave Styles (weekdays 3pm-7pm); the #1 night show, 'JoJo on the Radio' with JoJo Wright (weekdays 7pm-10pm); late-nights are hosted by Chuey Martinez (10pm-2am), and overnights are hosted again by Dave Styles (weekdays 2am-5am).
American Top 40 (AT40) with Ryan Seacrest airs on Saturday and Sunday mornings. 

Former on-air personalities includes Rick Dees, Sean 'Hollywood' Hamilton, Tim Kelly, Bruce Vidal, Big Ron O'Brien, Joe Cipriano, Magic Matt Alan, Charlie Tuna, etc.
