Trivia

• This is Trevor Philips' favorite radio station, which rather fits his psychotic personality. It is also the default station for his Bodhi.
• In Los Santos, this is The Lost MC's favorite radio station.
• This station appears to be a successor to Radio X, though plays punk music as opposed to the grunge of that station.
  • This is further proven by a stinger played before songs, which says "We've been Radio X for too long!", implying that this station could have been Radio X but renamed.
• The logo of the station looks somewhat similar to Television X, an adult television channel in the United Kingdom.
• Channel X might also be a parody of Channel V, a famous TV channel which plays video music.
• Songs from this station play in most Ammu-Nation stores in Los Santos.
• L.C.H.C. is indirectly referenced by Keith as "the punk scene in Liberty City."
• In one of the singers, a British lady's accent can be heard. This may suggest that the station may have at one point played punk songs from the U.K, despite the station's playlist entirely consisting of punk rock songs from California. This also supports the fact that The Clash's song "This Is Radio Clash" was meant to be on this station before it was cut.
• The songs Lexicon Devil was featured in the skating game Tony Hawk's Underground 2 and one of the cut songs, Los ​Angeles appeared in Tony Hawk American Wasteland video game.
