KIQI (1010 AM) is a commercial radio station in San Francisco, California. It is owned by Multicultural Broadcasting and airs a Spanish-language talk radio format. KIQI 1010 AM is simulcast on KATD 990 AM in the Sacramento Valley. Most shows are paid brokered programming where the hosts purchase time on the station and may advertise their companies and services. KIQI and KATD carry Oakland Athletics baseball games in Spanish.[3] The station's studios and offices are located near the Civic Center in San Francisco.
1010 AM is a Canadian clear-channel frequency, on which CFRB Toronto and CBR Calgary are the Class A dominant stations. KIQI broadcasts at 10,000 watts but must use a directional antenna at all times to protect those and other stations on 1010 AM. The transmitter is at the San Francisco–Oakland Bay Bridge toll plaza in Oakland.[4]
