Salt Lake City Sports Radio is thrilled to announce they have entered into a content partnership with Sports Byline USA, to provide syndicated programming for the station.
SLC Sports Radio will broadcast one local program, The DINO COSTA Show, which will air from 1-6P, Monday through Friday, originating from the SLC Sports Radio studios in Salt Lake City – and providing the Salt Lake Valley with 30-hours of local and live programming each week.
The Sports Byline USA Network will provide programming around the clock in 19 of the other 24 broadcast hours each day and night – including all hours during the weekends – in the initial stages of SLC Sports Radio’s debut.
Sports Byline USA President Darren Peck is excited about bringing their brand of national content to Salt Lake City acknowledging the region’s deep love of sports by saying; “We’re thrilled to be bringing our lineup to Salt Lake City and joining forces with broadcast icon Dino Costa to bring great content to the fans there. The region’s appetite for sports is exploding and the timing of this launch couldn’t be better. Dino has been providing informative, entertaining and innovative sports talk for decades and we’ve been cheering for him all along the way. Our hosts include industry veterans and successful sports figures like Ron Barr, Brian Billick, Fred Dryer, Ron Cey, Rick Tittle, Marty Tirrell and more. All the best to Dino and their staff there and we couldn’t be more excited to get started!
Salt Lake City Sports Radio is located on the AM dial at frequency 1550. It will broadcast 10K watts with a daytime signal that will cover all of SLC – with a reach that goes as far south as Provo. The station will also stream all live and syndicated programming on the official station website ensuring the ability to listen anywhere and at any time.
SLC Sports Radio director of programming Dino Costa says; “Darren Peck is way too nice, but I’m more than appreciative of his thoughts and kind words. I’m blessed to be a part of this project, one that has had wheels in motion over the last 16-months with the objective of providing listeners of Salt Lake City with a viable alternative in the world of sports radio. This is a great community with people who love their sports. There is a vision that is evident with many here who understand that Salt Lake City is not only growing, but is a city and a region just now starting to realize its full potential. We’re more than happy to be a part of it, and we look forward to providing an outlet and a platform that is uniquely situated as an independent radio station serving as the voice of the people. I want to thank Darren Peck and Sports Byline USA for their faith in us. I welcome them to Salt Lake City, while also thanking the many who have been on the air over the years here in SLC before us – including those who are currently on the air – and are our on-air colleagues of today.”
