KKLV

بدأت محطة KKLV بثها عام 1978 باسم KABE على تردد 107.1 في أوريم، يوتا . وبثت المحطة ما يُعرف بنمط الأغاني الرائجة للبالغين حتى عام 1983، حين نُقلت إلى تردد 107.5، وبثت نمط موسيقى البوب ​​المُنمّق باسم KUUT من عام 1983 حتى عام 1984. ومن عام 1984 إلى عام 1992، عُرفت المحطة باسم KMGR، ثم تغير اسمها في عام 1992 إلى KMXB قبل أن تُصبح KENZ في عام 1996.

بدأت محطة KENZ بثها لأول مرة باسم "107.5 The End" في منتصف ليل الأول من يناير عام 1996 بأغنية " It's the End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel Fine) " لفرقة REM ، وكانت تبث موسيقى بديلة موجهة للبالغين . ^{[ 4 ] [ 5 ]} كانت المحطة مملوكة في الأصل لمجموعة Slaymaker ( Monarch Broadcasting )، ثم بيعت إلى Citadel Broadcasting عام 1998. ^{[ 6 ]}

Much of the original staff came from now cross town rival KXRK. Jimmy Chunga, a weekender and producer of The Radio from Hell Show at X96 was hired to lead the morning show. Chunga first did the show solo, then was teamed up for a short time with a female co-host. He was joined by Marcus soon afterward. Andrea was hired away from X96 to work the midday shift. Biff Raff returned to the Salt Lake City market after spending time in Austin, TX and Denver, CO to be the program director. He also did an afternoon on-air shift. Dom Casual was the station's first music director and afternoon drive jock. Barb Thomas worked the night shift. Mister West left X96 as well and brought the "Saturday Night Cold Case" to the station. Pete May left 96.5 The Peak in Denver to join the staff as Production Director, and performed as “Announcerboy” on the morning show, playfully insulting Chunga, Marcus, and Mr. West. Norm Church also left X96 to work on-air, as well as take over marketing responsibilities for the station. ^[7]

In 1999, "Chunga and Marcus" hosted a contest titled "The Cruise of Dreams," after which Marcus did not return to the show. Shortly after the departure of Marcus, Mister West joined the morning show as Chunga's partner. This was a role reversal of sorts as Chunga had been West's partner on the "Saturday Night Cold Case," a call-in request show during West's weekend shift dating back to their days at X96.^[8]

At the end of 2005, Citadel Broadcasting moved the station from the 107.5 MHz frequency to the stronger and farther-reaching 101.9 MHz frequency. Even though they were no longer at the end of the dial, they retained the name.^[9]

When KENZ moved to 101.9, the station became known as KKAT. KKAT was perhaps best known as "Country Legends 107.5" with the morning show hosted by Country Joe. It played mostly classic country hits. The station was in operation from 2005–2010, before being sold to EMF. The station's former sister stations included KUBL, KENZ, KHTB, KBER, KBEE, KJQS, KFNZ and KKAT. ^[10]

في أواخر مارس 2010، تحولت محطة KKAT إلى بث إعادة بث لمحطة K-LOVE المسيحية المعاصرة . ^{[ 11 ]} ونصح موقع KKAT الإلكتروني المستمعين بالاستماع إلى المحطة الشقيقة KUBL . كما شكر الموقع المستمعين وأشار إلى أن المحطة أصبحت تحت إدارة جديدة. ^{[ 12 ]} وفي مارس 2011، غيرت المحطة اسمها إلى KKLV، مما يعكس النمط الجديد الذي تتبعه منذ عام 2010. وتغطي KKLV ومحطتها الشقيقة KNKL منطقة واساتش فرونت بأكملها بنفس البرامج. ^{[ 13 ]}

تمتلك المحطة الآن جهاز تقوية بقدرة 1000 واط يبث من قمة لويس، شمال مدينة بارك سيتي بولاية يوتا . ^{[ 14 ]}
