History

The station signed on the air in January 1958 [2] as KNFP. It was launched by three professors at La Sierra College (now La Sierra University) and Loma Linda University in Riverside, CA. The station has changed its call letters several times over the years. Other call signs included KSDA, KLLU and finally KSGN.

It has always been a Christian radio station. Its business office and studios were located on the campus of Loma Linda University from 1958 to 2005. In mid-2005, KSGN relocated its business office and studios to Redlands, CA.

In addition to the main station, KSGN is relayed by an additional two translators to widen its broadcast area.
