[edit] History
The station has previously gone under several call signs in its past. At its inception, the station was known as KSXX, changing calls on 1982-06-21 to KZJO. It previously only operated during the day only, but was later allowed to continue broadcasting during the night in 1982 with the change of calls. The station changed its format as well, broadcasting contemporary hits identifying itself as "63 Joe." Six months later, the station changed formats again, to its current format of talk radio and on 1985-08-05, the station changed its call sign to the current KTKK.[1][2]
