KMPX is where the "underground revolution" started. It began with Larry Miller's eclectic, late-night show and continued with Tom Donahue and his cast of zanies. It ended a year or so later when KMPX management tried to institute some programming rules and Tom and his staff walked out, only to show up a few months later at the new KSAN.
