KOGO (600 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station in San Diego, California. The station airs a news/talk radio format and is owned by iHeartMedia, Inc. The studios and offices are located in San Diego's Kearny Mesa neighborhood on the northeast side.
KOGO transmits with 5,000 watts both day and night. The station uses a directional antenna with a two-tower array transmitter located off 60th Street at Old Memory Lane in the Emerald Hills neighborhood of San Diego. The signal pattern generally follows the Pacific Coast from Baja California, Mexico, to Santa Barbara.[2] Because of its reach, KOGO is one of the primary Emergency Alert System (EAS) stations for the San Diego radio market. The KWFN antenna is at the top of one of two towers with the KLNV antenna being at the top of the other.
KOGO is the first radio station on the AM dial in the San Diego market to broadcast using HD Radio technology. The station is simulcast on 94.1 KMYI-HD2.
