[3][4] It broadcast with 1,000 watts during the day on 1260 kHz and was owned by the ABC Service Company, named for its three proprietors: E. Glenn Abercrombie, Milton F. Brown, Jr., and N. L. Caperton.
Within six months of signing on, ABC Service Company sold the station to John W. Parham and David A. Garee, who promptly exited the partnership.
The call sign was changed to KFAS, and it was paired with KFAS-FM (the former KBFE) at 105.5 MHz, giving it the FM counterpart it had not been able to obtain 15 years prior.
[9] In 1995, KFAS's FM counterpart (by now known as KKER), which had upgraded its facilities in order to become a rimshot into Phoenix, was bought by McDaniel and Callaham and began broadcasting the K-LOVE network, changing its calls to KLVA and later being sold directly to the Educational Media Foundation.
[10] This final incarnation of the station was short-lived, disappearing quickly, and the license was canceled in February 1997 for failure to transmit in a 12-month period under Section 312(g) of the Communications Act.
