After a brief hiatus in 2020, KABL proudly returned to streaming and her programming team – as challenged as they are – have pledged to keep KABL streaming around the world!
When KABL originally launched the internet streaming platform, listeners around the world flocked to our digital signal by the thousands, every hour of the day, seven days a week.
We were lucky to enlist Bay Area Radio Hall of Famer Bill Moen (BARHOF 2006), the original signature voice of KABL back when it debuted in 1959. Bill provided us with vocal vignettes describing the sights and sounds of San Francisco and some of its legendary characters, past and present. And Bill is still charming our listeners as only he can.
We also brought back “Sunday Sounds,” a popular program for more than a decade on San Francisco’s famed KSFO. On Classic KABL 960, Trish Bell guided the program like clockwork each and every Sunday morning at 9 for more than twelve years – even when battling cancer. Trish, cancer free thankfully, continues her “Sunday Sounds” show, along with her sidekick, LugNut.
On Saturday and Sunday evenings, our audience numbers exploded with the addition of “Sounds of Sinatra,” hosted by Sid Mark – a program that drew fans of Francis Albert from every corner of the planet. The “Sounds of Sinatra” can be heard right here on KABL Saturdays at 5pm and Sundays at 8pm.
Heck, even Clear Channel, the huge media conglomerate that bought KABL and eventually killed it off, licensed the call letters and imaging (the jingles and other programming elements) to us!
Have a comment? Please leave your thoughts about Classic KABL 960 below.
Our Classic KABL 960 is an amalgam of all versions of the station, with a little bit of something for everyone – if you lived in the Bay Area, you could probably pick out bits that reminded you of not only KABL and KSFO, but Magic 61, KNBR, KMPX “Big Band 99” and maybe a few others.
KABL’s programming remains a true labor of love! Trish and the KABL programming team sincerely welcome your feedback and suggestions!
Thank you, Classic KABL 960 listeners, wherever you are around the world. This little project wouldn’t have lasted a month if it wasn’t for the sheer amount of listeners, far and wide, that tune us in all hours of the day. And a very special thanks to Bill and Trish, who lend their considerable talents to Classic KABL 960, and make it a station worth listening to.

Sorry to see that Amazon Alexa does not acknowledge your Tunein stream. Says that KABL is not available. However I can hear stream on my iPad or computer. Please add KABL stream to Amazon Alexa devices.

Tony,
Can’t tell you how happy I am to see and hear the station again. COVID was tough without the beautiful music I came to rely on. I’m now going through a very challenging time at work and am happy to have the station around again. Please let us know how we can support your efforts in maintaining the station.
Tony Onorad
Hi David and very glad that you’re enjoying KABL – in the air – everywhere!
We hope that work has become less challenging and more enjoyable for you!

Do you need any volunteers to help. I have no radio skills, but a college grad and think on my feet. If you need help, happy to volunteer. Lived in SF for 7 years and this site has a nostalgia to it.
Tony Onorad
Hi Robert and thank you so much for your offer. I think that we are solid right now (well, insane, yet somewhat solid). Please keep listening and we always welcome listener feedback, input, suggestions, and cocktail recipes. Also, please feel free to join our Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/2605213286412643

I have been listening a bit and I’m originally from the S.F. Bay Area. I remember it from when I was a kid in the 1970s, back when Bill Moen made Dick Clark look old. KABL represents the best of what SF used to be. The very spirit of SF has been harmed over the years. KABL is there to keep what is valuable alive. Very worthwhile online station that I hope stays alive. It’s SF’s very heart and soul. Go KABL!!!
Tony Onorad
Great memory! I, too, remember my parents’ listening to KABL and growing up with it. And Bill will always be cool!
Michael Schwatlo
Fantastic music throughout the day …
It makes work so easy and in a good mood.
Thanks to everyone who makes this possible.
Best regards from northern Germany!
John Howery
wonderful discovery a couple of years ago. Don’t know how many times as we approached the toll plaza for the bay bridge, that I looked FOR THE KABL kite. Brings back many happy memories. I love the special programs like the concert hours, Saturday morning Carasel music and the history of San Francisco.
alex lamar
oh wow say it isn’t so, i enjoyed this station will miss it and as trish bell said all good things do come to a end

I just heard Trish announce this and am I in shock. Like so many other wonderful things these days, gone and not coming back.

Hi Tony;,, I’m glad you have got this up and running again. So far what I noticed there isn’t as many station identifications as KABL originally had,,, I loved those quirky KABL jingles,, from guitars, to horns, to bells, to all kinds of instruments,, it was just way cool! And of course the voice of Bill Moen, and Trish Bell,, I loved it and love it,,, forever! Thanks again, and again! PS,, somehow it has to be searchable through Google though?

Have you thought about fundraising (like via Patreon) to help you keep going and to even employ staff? I would be happy to pay a monthly subscription for this wonderful station.

I agree with Huw re: fundraising and/or a monthly paid subscription. I’d do that to keep KABL going and I’d even volunteer my time and efforts.

Any way to run a fundathon, or offer monthly subscriptions? It’s worth it to me, and to my sanity, to have KABL on the air 24/7! Put me down for a monthly subscription and ANY AND ALL HELP I CAN GIVE to keep the station “on the air”! I I still lived in the Bay Area I would GLADLY devote time and energy to helping run the place! PLEASE try to remain on the air!

I’ve been an avid KABL.com listener for years. It’s hard to think that you won’t be around anymore. But I understand your reasons for signing off. Just a few months ago I ended my own radio career, one that spanned over 30 years as an announcer, copywriter and producer. Somehow it seems fitting that KABL and I are calling it quits at the same time. When you’ve done radio as well as you can, day in and day out, for years, you can leave the air with no regrets. Take care Trish and Bill. And thanks. I’ll miss you.

I am so sad to hear that today is your last day broadcasting. I have been listening to the station for decades. I would listen with my mom in the ‘70’s and loved listening to Jim Lange. You will be truly missed.
CarolAnne
I am very saddened to read this. I’ve been listening since a kid in the 50’s. The cable car bell, Carter B Smith and so many others. This is another sad day for many many of us.
Jeff Owen
I am truly sad to find out about KABL’s demise. It has been a real joy being a faithful listener for 10 years. There will never again be anything like the heartwarming sound of KABL!
James
Hello from Romania! I first listened to KABL when I lived in San Francisco in 2018 and have tuned in regularly ever since. KABL brings back some great memories of my time in the City by the Bay and I learned so much about the city from listening. It will be very sad to see you go.

Classic KABL 960 has been my beloved constant companion. Thank you for for the many years of making a beautiful music oasis.
You will be missed! When will the last song be played?
Jess Smith
I was very sad to hear Trish say that KABL was coming to an end (even more so when I had time to grab my phone and read that it was true!).
My family and I have been listening for at least 10 years – at home and in the car – what a treat to listen on my way to and from work! “Sunday Sounds” plays “religiously” during our after-church Sunday dinners. Thanks to Bill´s interesting vignettes, I have learned a lot I didn´t know about San Francisco. We will miss you both very much. However, I must offer my greatest thanks and highest praise to the “only one person” mentioned above who put it all together – the jingles, the music – and made it such a wonderful and memorable experience.
In the words of Jim Reeves, “may the Good Lord bless and keep you (all) till we meet again!

Hey Tony! Thanks for the message about KABL being back! I found that out as I was using my wife’s phone to look through TuneIn and up popped the last station she listened to – KABL! I was super surprised, but in such a good way. I’m glad that this station is back. I’ve noticed some differences from the last iteration, but it is still just as wonderful. Are there going to be new Bill Moen vignettes ro more historical jingles and on-air bits? I’ve always loved those and would love to hear more.
Thanks again for everything!
Tony Onorad
Hi Dan and thank you for your kind words (and glad that your surprise was a good one!)!
We are working on more classic KABL audio, brining back Trish Bell on Sunday’s, and, perhaps, some new, yet very KABL, vignettes. Stay tuned and please feel free to join our Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/2605213286412643
Inge and Andreas Klose (mother and son)
To all who made KABL radio over the years possible:
To say that we are extremely sorry that KABL will cease operations would be a gross understatement!
It’s not just because that we (as former West Berliners) are especially grateful to ‘the American people’. After the war years my twelve year old mother listened enthusiastically to AFN radio… and now she’s 85 and we are listening almost every day to KABL.
It seems to those who do not belong to the so-called digital natives the world is ever faster becoming a quite desolate wasteland, a frustrating cultural Sahara…
All the best to all of you!
Two listeners from Berlin, Germany wishing every reader a good life!

Hey everyone! Let’s see if there is ANY way to keep KABL on the air! How many of you would be interested in donating time or money, or subscribing to KABL to keep it going? I’m retired and have a LOT of time to chip in, and I would HAPPILY pay to fund ongoing operations. I love this station, and the memories the music and the ‘jingles’ bring to me. It’s been my “lifeboat” the past few years, and especially THIS crazy year! It may be a lost cause; I know Bill wants to FINALLY retire (deservedly so) but keeping an online radio station running CAN be done by a few people, and with commitments to donating or subscribing. Anyone else out there not quite ready yo throw in the towel? Let’s see if there’s a chance! Bill! I’m serious! Can it be done?
Ken
I’m IN! This cannot be allowed to to be another low point of 2020. I also think making a CD of all of Bill’s SF moments and commercials would be a great resource for charity or fundraising for the future station!

I stumbled across KABL when I was looking for a radio station I could listen to while writing my final examination paper 7 years ago. I listened to KABL while studying for my final exams. I listened to KABL while painting the walls of me and my boyfriends first flat. I listened to KABL while getting ready for my marriage. I listened to KABL while carrying my first child and my second. I listen and still listen to KABL while playing with them, feeding one and nursing the other. I listened and still listen to KABL while cleaning, showering, doing paper work.
I can’t belive it’s going off the air.
I totally agree, I’d gladly PAY so I could “stay tuned”!!!
So much love and gratitude from Germany, and all the best for you in the future!

KABL is my favorite online station by far. I would gladly pay a monthly fee to keep it going. It is indeed very sad news that KABL is going away, but it was a great run. Thanks to all those who made it possible. Perhaps someone else can take over and put it back on the air everywhere, even if it is on the web!!!

I am very sad to hear KABL is going off the air, so to speak. You are breaking my heart. Again. In this crazy world, during these tumultuous times, we need KABL. I wish you would reconsider. I’d gladly pay a monthly subscription, I’d volunteer, I’d contribute in any way I can. Please, please don’t go.

I am so saddened to hear KABL -most loved station is going off the air. There is truly no other station like KABL that delivers beautiful music from 20’s-70’s. My grandma loved your station for decades but she has passed away in her 80’s. We’ve enjoyed listening to KABL together through the years. I wish there is a way to keep it going. I’d be happy to subscribe , pay monthly fee and volunteer time help keep it going. Thank you so very much for all the wonderful music, and great charismatic hosts Bill Moen and Trish Bell and Mark Sid. You’ve been such a joy to listen to and will surely be missed.

You don’t owe anyone anything, including an explanation. But still…
Please don’t let it die. You’ve done such an incredible job with KABL, it’s a labor of love and it shows. The emotional response this is getting is a testament to your success, and we’re so grateful for your dedication. Won’t you consider letting your legacy–and the legacy of one of the great radio stations–live on? The world needs this special slice of history, perhaps now more than ever. Please.

I’m going to miss KABL. So many great stations have gone. In the New York area WNEW and then WQEW. The great music is disappearing from the air and all that is left is noise. I am lucky to have a local commercial station, Legends Radio, WLML with similar music. You can catch it on the internet at https://legendsradio.com/. There is another very fine internet station out of London, Serenade Radio, https://www.serenade-radio.com/
If anyone has suggestions for a replacement station please post.

Discovered this station way back in 1997 while driving my early 1970’s Chrysler to college, back when it was actually on the AM dial. It opened up a world of new music to the ears of a teenager, got me through some rough times, and I’ll forever be grateful for that. Cheers to those who kept it running into the digital world long after it disappeared from the airwaves.

Mel Figoni
As a native San Franciscan I started listening to KABL in 1959 when it went on the air. Finished high school and college with KABL as my background music. My wife and I met Bill Moen back in the 1980s when he agreed to be the Master of Ceremonies for our Italian Catholic Federation Fashion show in Santa Rosa. We had lunch with him in Novato back then and he and his wife were dinner guests in our home a couple of weeks after the fashion show. That was on a Saturday night. Monday morning he told his audience he had the best veal ever at the Figoni’s. The station was then inundated asking for the address of the Figoni’s Restaurant. He kept telling them it was a private home. We’ll miss you Bill and all the great music you’ve given over the years,

Thank you so much. I grew up in the Bay Area and by folks were KABL listeners, so this brought back happy childhood memories, plus as I’ve gotten older I’ve gained a true appreciation for the music itself. As sad as I am to hear that KABL is gone once again, thank you for all the hard work and giving us a second chance to fully appreciate what I’m guessing many of us kind of took for granted the first time around. All the best.

I’m really sad to see KABL go. I’ve been listening to this station since 2001 when it was still in the air at 960 AM, after that, they moved online. I loved Jukebox Saturday Night, Sounds of Sinatra, and Sunday Sounds with Trish Bell. Listening to KABL reminds me of all the good times that I had in the past and the music was very comforting. I agree with the other suggestions to keep this station running, I would gladly make a monthly contribution to help support them.

I was ecstatic when i discovered KABL a few years ago. I was raised on this music as my father was a professional big band player. He played with many of the big starts when they visited Australia. The memories the station brought me were beyond belief. I too would willingly pay a monthly subscription if the station were to continue. The closure is just another disaster for 2020.

Dear Mr. Onorad,
I am happy that KABL is back on air. I was very dempressed when I disappeared KABL last year. Fortunately, I had saved dozens of hours for my car trip. Since I missed KABL a lot, I have been listening to the saved broadcasts over and over again to keep the memory of the good old days alive.
Please let us listeners know a way to support you financially so that KABL can stand on a stable foundation.
Many greetings to all listeners from old Germany

Hello.
It is so nice of you to bring back Classic KABL 960 back on the air again. I’ve been listening to it for over a year and a half before you guys shut down and now you’re back on the air. This station has brought nothing but happiness and joy over my life. My debt to you for bringing this station in my life is unmeasurable and I can’t thank you enough for your dedication.
There’s one thing I got to ask. Can you guys enable this station to be listened on Amazon Alexa devices again? In the past, I have been able to listen to this station on my Alexa devices, but ever since you guys came back it has only worked on my google home devices but not on Alexa devices. It would be grateful if you can enable that again.
Tony Onorad
Hi Alexis and thank you SO much for your kind words! That means a lot to us who passionately program KABL each week.
Yes, we will look into Alexa and see what needs to be done from a technical perspective to have KABL streaming on that. Thank you for that idea.
Please feel free to join our Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/2605213286412643

Technical question: can the new KABL stream be increased from its current 64 kbit/s HE-AAC to 128 kbit/s AAC-LC for better audio quality? 64 kbit/s HE-AAC is adequate for many people, but younger ears and audiophiles tend to hear the synthetic highs of low bitrate HE-AAC very easily. I’m not sure if your bandwidth provider bills by the byte or not, so clearly, I wouldn’t ask you spend money on satisfying a minority of people. But if there’s no extra cost to you, this would be much appreciated.
By the way, thank you for bringing this station back. I discovered it about a year before it left the netwaves and was horrified to see it go after how fond I’d grown of it. Having it available once again is simply marvelous. You’ve done a wonderful job resurrecting it. Thank you!

I did not realize KABL was back on the interent after over a year ago when it went away. I just tuned in about a month ago and was surprised it was back! It sounds great on the internet too! I was a regular KABL listener since 1977 until it unexpectantly became a rock station in January 1990. I came back to listening to KABL when it became a “standards” station in the early 1990’s with DJ’s “Gentleman” Jim Lange and Dino Donikian, unitl, once again KABL disappeared in 2004 when Clear Channel took over. I thought it was gone for good. It’s great KABL is back and is great to hear BIll Moen’s voice once again. After all these decades, I still remember the names of the DJ’s of the old KABL days too, There is of course Bill Moen, Bob Nelson, Joe Weaver, Harry Webster, and Rick Wiseman, there are others, but cannot remember them all.
Tony Onorad
Thank you so much! We remember those days, too, and are grateful that KABL is back streaming and that our listeners are happy!

Greetings from Dennis in Frankenmuth, MI.
I was so sad when I discovered KABL internet radio off the air a couple of years ago. I recently found that it came back in all of its glory last year. I love listening to the station throughout the day. I also occasionally run it through my mini AM transmitter so I can enjoy listening to it on my restored antique radios. It sounds so much better that way! Thank you for bringing back a little more joy into my life.
Manuel Navarro
Well, it’s no longer working as of 12-18-2022!! First, the start button on the kablradio.com site is shaded and I can no longer start playback. Two, the TuneIn site claims my browsers are no longer supported and that I can use the TuneIn pop-out player. That’s great, but that does not work either! WTH?!?!? Unfortunately, I cannot install the TuneIn app on this company computer…… Bummer.

Years ago, an elderly cousin gave my wife and I her ’66 Triumph Spitfire, as she had early stages dementia, and insurance wouldn’t allow co-ownership. It has an AM radio, and we would listen to KABL as we drove around the Bay Area. We’re glad it’s streaming and we have a pre-set button on our internet radio in the kitchen.. It is cool.. The photo on your website is a postcard that we have a copy of..it’s funny….
Randy Asplund
I should have checked back sooner! When the streaming stopped in 2020, I was disappointed to say the least. For whatever reason, last Sunday (2/5/2022), I decided to click on the KABL link on “The Sounds of Sinatra” website. Imagine my joy! It was like a reunion with a long lost friend! Welcome back from Buffalo Lake, Minnesota.
Harold Bregman
This station reminds me of WNEW in N.Y.C. Great music
paul herbert
KABL? So NICE to you back again, where you belong! (Or was that line from Hello Dolly in song?)
Ha! Love you on my Echo/Alexa device, but not this morning?
Trouble – all that comes across this morning is the pre-commercial set before KABL streaming begins, and the commercials play over and over and over and…………….?
But you’re streaming over the Internet just fine? Hope this isn’t a long term problem? So nice to just say “Alexa, KABL” and hear the great songs on a great radio station heard everywhere!
Lewis
Hello, although I am a Progressive Rock fan, I have always loved the music of our lives, so when KABL went away I killed my radio with tears in my eyes. So when I found out that I could hear this wonderful music streaming I was so happy again, the radio is still killed but it is wonderful to hear this wonderful soundtrack playing in our beautiful city by the bay again.
Thank you and blessed be
MM
Stream is down this morning, hope it comes back up before Mother’s Day brunch!
Thanks for keeping KABL around, it’s an absolute treasure and a joy for us who listen.

I just found you again. Glad I can listen like my Dad did in the 70’s.
By any chance are you on Alexa?

I was a little devastated when I read that you were going to have to close down back in 2020. I never followed up, and then after Christmas 2024 I thought I would look at your website for old times and discovered you came back! I have been making due with Humbolt 101, Biltmore Radio, and Illinois Street Lounge, but it is great to have the great KABL on my Ipod and internet radio sources!

Hi Mitchell and thank you for the feedback. YES! KABL is back in the air – everywhere!
