01History

The station went on the air in 1950. By the 1970s, when it changed its call letters to KNOI (K#1), the station was airing a country format. The sister station was an automated rock format KQQQ-FM (KQ-105); KNOI was later changed to KQQQ on January 23, 1983.

For much of its history, the station was a daytimer, signing off at sunset to protect KSL in Salt Lake City at adjacent 1160 AM.
