Andres Bichara is a name that San Diego sports fanatics may be somewhat familiar with, although he’s neither a team owner or a pro athlete. Rather, Bichara is the owner of Interamericana de Radio S.A. de CV, licensee of XEPRS-AM 1090 in San Diego, which pulled the plug on “The Mighty 1090” in April 2019 over unpaid LMA fees from the group operating the station: Broadcast Company of the Americas.
With no notice, Bichara pulled the plug on that English-language sports Talker by simulcasting a Mexican Adult Hits FM serving the McAllen, Tex.
Now, Bichara is back in the news, as he’s agreed to sell that Rio Grande Valley FM to a non-secular broadcaster.
