History

[edit | edit source]

The station went on the air on Sept. 26, 1947 as KBRL, a radio station built by Roy Lenwell and William J. Cox.[3][4] Lenwell retired and sold the station to Edwin S Towell III from Falls City, Nebraska in 1972. The Santee Family purchased the station in January 1977. The station became a country station in 1977 and was sold to Jerry Venable and his bunch from KFNF in September 1981, and changed the call sign to KSWN on 1982-10-11. On 1990-04-03, the station changed its call sign back to the current KBRL.[5]
