Dudley and his wife Dorothy "Dot" Waller ran the station until 2014, when it was sold to Chuck Conrad's Chalk Hill Media.
Some of KEBE's famous alumni include: Tom Perryman, Dudley Waller, Rick Watson, Jim Lord, and Al Mather.
KEBE's success led to the Wallers filing for an initial construction permit for an FM station for East Texas.
KZXM, KFRO-FM, KLJT, and KMPA have all since been sold to the Educational Radio Foundation of East Texas, owner and operator of Christian stations KVNE and KGLY.
KEBE began simulcasting KOME-FM, a Classic Hits formatted radio station near Glen Rose, Texas.
On December 23, 2020, East Texas Results Media applied to move 104.7 K284CT to the northern edge of KEBE's coverage area, dropping one channel to 283 (104.5 MHz), and changing the translator's COL to Tyler.
KEBE AM and FM, as well as translator K284CT remain silent, under separate Special Temporary Authority filings granted by the Federal Communications Commission.
