The KFI-NBC contract expires this year, leaving the chain free to negotiate elsewhere for a second outlet. Radio insiders' view- point Is that In addition to KFI's 50,000 outlet and Its 1,000 watt sluff station, KECA, utilizing chiefly NBC sustalners, the chain will ac- quire one other local station, either by an outright buy or through a long-term leasing arrangement. Mentioned as possible grabs by NBC are the 60,000 watt KNX, and the Warnej: Btation,_ KPWB, now 2,500 watts but witlf~an appHca'tfon filed for 6,000. Currently KFl and KNX are sharing the largest volume of spon- sored time among the Los Angeles major stations, with KHJ, the CBS outlet, third, and KFWB fourth. On basis of present contracts It is es- timated that KNX will gross around $700,000 In 1935; KFI, $600,000; KHJ. $400,000, and KFWB, $250,000.
