But, there's a weather emergency...

It's quite tiring to have news talk ten seventy on all the time,
with their high stress format and ubiquitous commercial messages,
but at the first sensation of an earthquake,
most people I know in SoCal instinctively tune to KNX

Not so. Probably most people under 35 to 40 and definitely those under 30
don't use AM and have little knowledge of what is on the band.

And in polls, KFWB gets more credit for post-quake coverage, but the big
winner is KFI simply because KFI has about triple or quadruple the regular
audience of KNX and is better known.
