Where it all began...
October 30th , 1970 … 3:30 PM …
105.5 FM signed on as KILJ. The first programming sent out to southeast Iowa was local news…followed by music… and at 7:30 that night, it was a live broadcast of Mt. Pleasant Panther Football. People couldn’t believe their ears…… news and sports as well as music on an FM station!!!
Frosty Mitchell and Robert Ray started KILJ… Paul and Joyce Dennison purchased the station in 1977.
KILJ-FM was one of the first in Iowa to use an AM station format on an FM frequency. Before that time it was “elevator” music only on FM’s.
