History
[edit]KCFB-FM officially signed on the air in 1987.[5] The station was established as a non-commercial, listener-supported outlet dedicated to Christian programming. In its earliest years, the station operated as a relatively low-power facility, broadcasting with only 800 watts of power.[6]
The station was acquired in November 1997, by Minnesota Christian Broadcasters, Inc. (MCBI), a regional broadcasting group based in Pequot Lakes.[7] While the station initially maintained local studios in St. Cloud, MCBI eventually consolidated most operations to its Pequot Lakes facility to streamline regional broadcasting.[8]
Under MCBI’s ownership, the station underwent a significant technical overhaul to expand its reach across Central Minnesota. In November 1999, KCFB increased its effective radiated power from 800 watts to 15,000 watts.[9] This upgrade, paired with a transmitter height of 106 meters (348 feet), allowed the station to cover the entire St. Cloud metropolitan area and much of Stearns and Benton counties.[10]
The station’s signal is transmitted from a tower on the southwest side of St. Cloud, just off Interstate 94, a facility it shares with KLZZ.[11]
