It is owned and operated by the News-Press & Gazette Company of St. Joseph, Missouri, through its licensee Pikes Peak Television, Inc.[2] KRDO-FM airs a News/Talk radio format.
[3] Weekdays, after a morning news block, KRDO-AM-FM carries two talk shows, both of which are about family finances: Dave Ramsey, and Denver-based Tom Martino.
In 1989, Patrick sold KWYD-FM to Optima Communications which flipped the station to a new-age music/smooth jazz format as KBZE, using the on-air moniker The Breeze.
(On October 31, 2008, the KWYD-FM call letters were picked up by a radio station in Boise, Idaho, which broadcasts a rhythmic contemporary format.)
Optima Communications entered into a local marketing agreement (LMA) with Pikes Peak Broadcasting Company to operate the station in 1993.
The KRDO-FM call letters had previously been used on 95.1 MHz in the Colorado Springs radio market, the original sister station to KRDO (AM).
