KDVV (100.3 MHz) is a commercial FM radio station licensed to Topeka, Kansas. It is owned by Cumulus Media. [2] It airs a classic rock radio format that leans toward harder-edged songs from the 1960s, 70s and 80s. It carries the nationally syndicated Bob & Tom Show in morning drive time.
KDVV has an effective radiated power (ERP) of 100,000 watts, the maximum for most FM stations. The transmitter tower is on SW Davis Road in Dover. [3] The radio studios are on South Kansas Avenue in Topeka.
The station signed on the air on May 29, 1960 . Its original call sign was KTOP-FM, and was the sister station to KTOP (1490 AM). (The KTOP-FM call letters are now found on a co-owned station at 102.9 MHz in St. Marys.) At first, KTOP-AM-FM simulcast and were network affiliates of the Mutual Broadcasting System. In 1964, KTOP-AM-FM were acquired by Harris Enterprises. [4]
By the 1970s, KTOP-FM had a separate format from 1490 AM. While KTOP (AM) was a Top 40 station in the 1960s and 70s, KTOP-FM aired an automated country music format. In 1976, the two stations flipped, with KTOP-FM becoming the Top 40 station, playing contemporary hits in FM stereo. During this time, KTOP-FM switched its call letters to KDVV. The Top 40 format continued throughout the 1980s and into the early 1990s.
The station has aired various forms of album rock music since the 1990s, at times leaning heavily on classic rock and at other times playing more new music. In 2014, KDVV became the Topeka affiliate of the Bob & Tom Show . KDVV serves now as the de facto active rock station for Topeka, Junction City, and Manhattan since the nearest active rock station provides only rimshot coverage.
