Radio veteran and most recent program director of CBS Radio Phoenix’s KMLE and KZON, Bruce St. James, made the announcement today that he will get his start on 92.3 KTAR-FM on Monday.

St. James will take care of the 9am to noon shift– a shift that most recently belonged to Darrell Ankarlo. He is no stranger to KTAR-FM as he had been one of a few wheel of hosts filling in for the 9am to noon shift while Ankarlo continued to recover from a serious injury suffered over a year ago.

Bruce St. James will take late mornings over beginning Monday, May 3.

KEDJ transforms to X

Alternative station, KEDJ, transforms yet again– this time, to X– X103.9. The change was complete with a whole new website and logo.

It is KEDJ’s second major change in less than a year. Back in July of 2009, KEDJ took the time to campaign for listener survey participation on how to make the station better. There was a bit of a stunt on-air. When they returned, the longtime, well-known name for the station as “The Edge” was dropped for “FM 103-9″ and a major programming tweak.

Today, “FM 103-9″ was dropped for “X103-9″– the X, representing Generation X as their target.
