KABQ-AM (1350 khz) is a radio station in Albuquerque, NM owned by Clear Channel known as "Progressive Talk 1350". The station features a liberal, left-leaning news and talk format that started in August 2004. KABQ affiliated with the former Air America radio network, which declared bankruptcy in October 2006. KABQ-AM transmits at full power (5000 watts) only during the day, dropping to 500 watts at night, and reception can be problematic outside the immediate Albuquerque area due to more powerful stations broadcasting on identical or nearby frequencies from the U.S. and Mexico. Some of the Air America hosts featured include Stephanie Miller, Ed Schultz, Randi Rhodes, Lionel, and Al Franken, who has since left Air America.
