The Broadcast Company of the Americas, also known as BCA Radio is a broadcasting company based in the San Diego, California area.
BCA Radio operates the following radio stations:
*XEPRS-AM 1090 kHz: XX 1090, sports radio, (flagship home for the San Diego Padres)
*XHPRS-FM 105.7 mHz: 105.7 The Walrus, oldies music, (also the flagship home for the San Diego Padres)
*XEPE-AM 1700 kHz: San Diego 1700, talk radio, (flagship home for the Lake Elsinore Storm and LA Galaxy)
The Viejas Band of Kumeyaay Indians, which owns and operates Viejas Casino, owns 50% of BCA.
In January 2008, programmer Mark Larson at BCA's "San Diego 1700" added local progressive talker Stacy Taylor to its afternoon drive time slot. Taylor had been the morning host of KLSD 1360, an "Air America" affiliate, until the station's parent company, Clear Channel Communications - a politically conservative organization with strong ties to Republican politicians including the Bush family - changed its format to sports talk in November of 2007. Taylor is now the only progressive talker on air in San Diego, a community strongly dominated by right-wing radio and newspaper media.
Currently, BCA only owns the programming rights to these stations, with licenses and transmitters owned by Mexican broadcasters; Mexican regulations forbid ownership of stations based in Mexico by foreign companies.
