KSL Newsradio
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
KSL Newsradio is a radio programming service based in Salt Lake City, Utah. It is broadcast simultaneously on AM station KSL (1160 kHz at 50,000 watts) and FM station KSL-FM (102.7 MHz, Midvale). Both stations are owned by Bonneville International Corporation, which is in turn owned by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Originally designated with the call letters KZN, KSL began life as the radio arm of the Deseret News. The station's first broadcast came on May 6, 1922 in the form of a talk by then-LDS Church president Heber J. Grant.
In 1924, it changed its calls to KFPT, and adopted its current calls in 1925. A series of power boosts over the next decade brought the station to its current 50,000 watts in 1932. It spent time at several frequencies over the years before settling at 1160 in 1941. It can be heard across much of the country west of the Mississippi River at night.
Soon after becoming a clear-channel station, it joined the CBS Radio Network. It remained with CBS until 2005, when it switched to ABC.
The station also spawned KSL-TV in 1949, it switched to NBC in 1995.
Its most famous program -- Music and the Spoken Word with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir (the oldest series in nationwide network broadcasting), continues to be distributed by CBS Radio to this day. It airs each Sunday at 9:30 a.m. local time (11:30 a.m on the East Coast). Another notable program was Herb Jepko's Nitecaps, which began in the 1960s and was one of the first U.S. radio stations to be syndicated nationally.
On September 3, 2005 KSL began simulcasting at 102.7 MHz FM, replacing KQMB (STAR 102.7, also owned by Bonneville), an adult contemporary station. Bonneville claims this was done to make it easier for people to listen to the station inside office buildings, and because STAR 102.7 had been losing market share since the first of the year (although, according to ratings it was still one of the top stations in its market segment.)
Note: Current as of October 2005.
