KFAR

KFAR (660 AM) is a commercial radio station programming news/talk in Fairbanks, Alaska, United States, broadcasting on 660 AM.

The station marked his entry into broadcasting, as Lathrop continued to diversify and expand his business empire throughout the Alaska Territory.

Its transmitter was on Farmers Loop Road, northeast of the University of Alaska, on a tract of land owned by Lathrop (around which the Fairbanks Golf and Country Club was later built).

Midnight Sun also operated sister station KFAR television on channel 2, with much cooperation and intermingling of on-air personnel evident.

The partnership of Bill Walley, Edward A. Merdes and Louis Frank Delong, doing business as Borealis Broadcasters, purchased the station.
