History.
The station was first licensed in 1938 as KFAM on 1420 kHz. The call letters recalled an earlier St. Cloud station, WFAM, owned by the Times Publishing Company and the "St. Cloud Daily Times", which had been first licensed in June 1922 and deleted in the summer of 1928. In 1941, under the provisions of the North American Regional Broadcasting Agreement, KFAM moved to its current frequency of 1450 kHz. In 1948 it was joined by a sister station, KFAM-FM (now KCLD-FM). The two stations were sold to Alvar Leighton in 1975.
