History

The station officially launched on at just before "the stroke of Noon" on January 1, 2015, [4] but didn't officially get its License to Cover until April 6, 2015. [7]

On May 27, 2016, the station briefly signed off, though it did not file an application for special temporary authority with the Federal Communications Commission, [7] after its founding instructor William Story retired. [8] The student staff of KWDC-LP were to move to the Peace and Justice Network of San Joaquin Country-owned KXVS-LP to get their station on the air. [8] [9] Unfortunately, the station's website URL and slogan "The Voice of Stockton" were trademarked by the station's former general manager, who also redirected all of KWDC-LP's social media accounts to KXVS'. [9] Eventually, KWDC-LP returned to the air on September 18, 2016. [9] Subsequently, KXVS-LP went silent in late-September 2017 and its license was lost in late-September 2018. [10]
