KQQB FM радиостанциясының тарихы мен ауысулары

Radio station in Newport, Washington

Originally assigned KMJY FM in 1989 and receiving its broadcast license in 1990, this station was assigned the KQQB FM call sign by the Federal Communications Commission on December 21, 2005. KQQB FM was one of two rhythmic contemporary outlets serving the Spokane area when it signed on in December 2005 (KEZE was the other). In December 2006, they re imaged themselves as "Live 104.5" and shifted away from their Rhythmic lean for a somewhat more mainstream direction. In June 2008, the station fell silent for nearly a full year. On June 5, 2008, the on line website All Access reported that KQQB FM and KAZZ were taken off the air. No reason was given for the abrupt sign off, but whatever issue took the stations dark was "in court", although there were no details as to what those issues were. According to messages posted at Radio Info. com, there were issues detailing the sale of both stations that resulted in former owners Radio Station KMJY, LLC, going to court to regain control after Proactive Communications defaulted on paying the final $1 million of a $6 million deal. Radio Station KMJY, LLC, then obtained a court order to seize the equipment from the studio and the station tower. According to the FCC database, the station went silent on June 4, 2008, and on June 16, 2008, applied for special temporary authority to "remain silent", which was granted on August 27, 2008. The reason given in the application was "A secured creditor has seized transmitting equipment necessary to the operation of the station." This special temporary authority was scheduled to expire on February 24, 2009. Per the FCC notification, the broadcast license of KQQB FM would have automatically expired as a matter of law if broadcast operations did not resume by 12:01 a. m. on June 5, 2009.

In a June 2009 filing with the FCC, KQQB FM said that it resumed broadcasting shortly before the deadline but that it began "experiencing program delivery problems" and fell silent again on June 3, 2009. The licensee attested that it was working on an alternative method of program delivery so that it may "return the station to broadcast service". On December 1, 2014, KGZG FM changed its call sign to KNHK FM.

After Hank FM was bought by Xana Oregon, LLC in July 2021, Hank FM switched to All Christmas 104.5 FM on October 1, 2021. With the change of music format, KNHK FM switched its call sign to KZIU FM on October 12, while KZIU FM switched to KNHK FM for Hank FM in Walla Walla.

After All Christmas 104.5, on January 1, 2022, at 12:00 AM, KZIU FM started playing Christian adult contemporary music. As of that point, they kept the KZIU FM call sign as well the website allchristmas1045. com. By the time radio news website RadioInsight reported on the change (coming with such little announcement that they did not do so until almost three weeks after, on January 19), the station began identifying as KJYR, although as of the RadioInsight report they had yet to file the change with the FCC, which still identified them as KZIU FM. On April 6, 2022, the call sign was formally changed to KJYR.

In July 2005, Radio Station KMJY, LLC, reached an agreement to sell this station to Proactive Communications, Inc. The deal was approved by the FCC on September 1, 2005, and the transaction was consummated on September 28, 2005. Proactive Communications, the station's licensee at the time this station went silent, also owned and operated 1970s oldies formatted KAZZ, which was in the same studio in downtown Spokane. In July 2008, Proactive Communications, Inc., reached an agreement to return the broadcast license for this station to Radio Station KMJY, LLC. The deal was approved by the FCC on September 10, 2008, and the transaction was consummated on the same day. Effective July 16, 2021, Legend Broadcasting sold KNHK FM, KYOZ, and translator K239CL to Tom Hodgins and Christopher Jacky's Xana Oregon, LLC for $395,000.

KJYR programming is also carried on broadcast translator or booster stations to extend or improve the coverage area of the station.
