History
This station received its original construction permit from the Federal Communications Commission on November 6, 2015.[2] The new station was assigned the KKCA call sign by the FCC on November 21, 2015.[3] KKCA received its license to cover from the FCC on December 31, 2018.[4] The station had a country format until 2021.
