Contents

KJBN broadcasts at 1,000 watts by day. But because AM 1050 is a Mexican clear channel frequency, it must greatly reduce power at night to 19 watts to avoid interfering with other stations on its frequency.

History

KJBN first signed on in 1948 as KVLC. [2] It was owned by the Southwest Broadcasting Company. The following year it put an FM radio station on the air, 94.1 KVLC-FM (today KKPT).
