Situated in the Santa Clara Valley at the southern end of San Francisco Bay, the city of San Jose is part of the sprawling San Francisco Bay Area metropolis, which is home to nearly 8 million people. With a population of nearly one million on its own, San Jose is actually the largest city in northern California, exceeding the population of San Francisco itself–prompting Arbitron to rank San Jose as its own separate radio market apart from San Francisco, although the two cities are less than 50 miles apart. As a result, residents of the Bay Area benefit from bleedover signals from two major radio markets, with several dozen strong-signal stations competing for market share.
Interestingly, San Jose has a notable legacy in the history of radio itself, having been the site of the world’s very first radio station. The station, which began as “Station FN” in San Jose, continues to broadcast from San Francisco today as KCBS.
Whether you desire to be a radio DJ, newscaster, sportscaster, talk show host, programming director or technical engineer, the San Jose radio market obviously holds plenty of opportunities for you to learn, grow and connect. And the RADIO CONNECTION can help you make the most of those opportunities.
