San Diego Radio: The Mightier 1090 Is Back


A legendary sports radio station has returned to Southern California airwaves with an updated name.

The Mighty 1090 abruptly went off the air on April 10, 2019, due to an issue between the station’s parent company and the owners of the Mexico-based radio tower that distributes the station’s signal.

But on Monday, Aug. 17, the station once known as the Mighty 1090 returned the 1090 AM radio dial Monday at 9am as "The Mightier 1090.

Bill Hagen of Mightier 1090 said in a news release, “It’s taken a tireless amount of work from a number of great people to get us to this point. It has long been our goal to give 1090 AM back to the millions of listeners of Southern California that have missed it since it went off the air almost 18 months ago and we’re doing so as The Mightier 1090!!”

The station’s lineup will consist of a show hosted by San Diego sports radio veteran Scott Kaplan, as well as nationally-syndicated programs from well-known sports hosts Rich Eisen, Scott Ferrall, and Tony Bruno.

Hagen added, “Launching a radio station from scratch during a pandemic with virtually no live sports taking place has been a daunting task to say the least, but we made it, and I am very proud of the product that we will be putting on the air.”
