KGW? or KGON am? |

Here's the alternate question: Which frequency (or frequencies) has had the fewest, or no call letter changes since sign-on? |
|

106.7 FM would have to be near the top of the "Most Changes" list. KQIV, KMJK, KMXI, KKJZ, KLTH, plus the classic rock, oldies & K-Bach formats (I remember the formats but not the calls for those formats). |

Oldies was still KMXI, K-Bach was KKBK. If you're referring to Classic Rock as "Pure Rock 106.7 KMXI," that also answers that (I don't know firsthand of that though). |

Didn't 970 change to KYTE twice? The possible second time was when the classical format moved from FM to AM. |

I believe so but I don't remember when - late 80s is when it changed from KCNR? |

It was KMJK that was Classic Hits. KMXI was Hot AC at first, after changing from KMJK without changing format. KCNR was on 1410. I'm thinking that KBPS was the second set of calls for the Benson station. 970 was KYTE for quite a few years! They went from CHR, Country, AC, Music of Your Life followed by their own local version of Nostalgia and Classical, all with the same call letters. I'm surprised they didn't keep them for B/EZ, which was KESI. Craig, wasn't Portland's Home of Praise KKPZ for a short time between KPHP and KKSL when it moved to 1330? |

KXL and KBPS were both on 1420 in 1939. |

Check out this history of KBPS link. |

105.9 should get an honorable mention in this thread, since it was KXMX and KKLQ before sign-on, signed on as KBET-FM, changed to KSTE-FM, and is now KRVO. That's 5 call letters in 5 years (the station was authorized 1998) |

That's true. Good point. |

KGW spent several years at 610 after moving from 833. |

Wasn't 92.3FM also known as KLIQ-FM before becoming KGON? |
|
Author: Csb Friday, February 21, 2003 - 3:57 pm |
|
One of the FMs was and I think that was it. |
|
Author: Semoochie Friday, February 21, 2003 - 5:34 pm |
|
KLIQ-FM was on 92.3. |
|
Author: Outsider Saturday, February 22, 2003 - 12:38 am |
|
That's what I thought. I remembered a sticker, like the kind that used to be put on reel boxes containing dubs for other stations, that said KLIQ 1290kc and KLIQ 92.3 FM. |

actually....970 was classical for a few months...After they started THE CITY on 101.1, the classical format moved to AM, then they went to easy listening on AM later... |

1410 went from KPAM to KLSC and back to KPAM again, if that's what you mean. |

>>I thought KYTE-FM was the only one of the two that repeated. |

Randy: 970 KYTE did not repeat. |

On 1290 before KLIQ was KBKO found that in the old Oregonian newspaper one time. |
