Past

In 1972, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) approved a license to increase transmitting power to 30,000 watts and change the frequency to 90.7 FM. Transmission power was raised again in 1998 to 60,000 watts, effectively increasing KOBC's listening area by 40%.
Sale of KOBC
OCC sold KOBC to its current owner, the Educational Media Foundation, on October 1, 2008.
