History
[edit | edit source]The station began broadcasting February 22, 1961, and held the call sign KBGN-FM, simulcasting AM 910 KBGN.[2] In 1970, the station's call sign was changed to KBXL.[3] KBXL aired an easy listening format in the 1970s, 1980s, and early 1990s.[7][8][9][10] In October 1991, the station adopted a soft AC format, and was branded "X-94".[10] By 1994, the station had adopted a religious format.[11]
In May 2025, Inspirational Family Radio filed to sell KBXL to the University of Northwestern – St. Paul, owner of the Northwestern Media network of Christian radio stations, for $1.5 million.[12]
