KKNS
KKNS (1310 AM) is an American radio station licensed to Corrales, New Mexico, serving the Albuquerque metropolitan area. It is owned by The Navajo Nation and broadcasts talk and music programs in English and in the Navajo language. By day, it is powered at 5,000 watts non-directional. But to reduce interference at night to other stations on 1310 AM, it reduces power to only 82 watts. The transmitter is on Montbel Place in Albuquerque. History The sign-on of KXAK on July 15, 1985, returned 1310 kHz to use for the first time in Albuquerque since the demise of KARA in May 1968. KXAK, a contemporary Christian music station initially owned by Harold S. Schwartz and Associates, had been years in the making; the Federal Communications Commission had granted the permit in December 1979, but the station had suffered an unexpected setback when county commissioners denied the station's application to build a transmitter site in 1983 after KDEF, to which KXAK would have been adjacent ...

KARA (New Mexico)
KARA was a radio station on 1310 AM in Albuquerque, New Mexico, United States. The station operated from December 1, 1959 to May 18, 1968. Over much of its history, KARA encountered financial difficulties, which ultimately forced the station to cease operations and declare bankruptcy. History KARA began broadcasting December 1, 1959. It was originally owned by KARA, Inc., and became Albuquerque's ABC Radio affiliate. It was the tenth radio station in town, operating a continuous music format; launch promotions stated that the station was "Keeping Albuquerque Radio Active". The ownership, which had acquired the construction permit for $15,000 before sign-on, was headed by Nicholas White and John Gallagher. White sold his stock to Gallagher the next year. Later in 1960, KARA joined the fray as several applicants sought to build a station at 860 kHz, with KARA proposing to relocate its station from 1310 while keeping its power at 1,000 watts; three months later, the station opt ...

Corrales, New Mexico
Corrales is a village in Sandoval County, New Mexico, United States. First farmed by Tiquex Pueblo people, chosen due to its proximity to the Rio Grande, as documented by Hispano farmers of Nuevo México in the late 1500s. Despite being a part of the Albuquerque metropolitan area, the village maintains its rural character, while also being surrounded by the cities of Albuquerque and Rio Rancho. The population of Corrales was 8,329 at the 2010 Census. The Rio Grande Bosque on the eastern edge of the village provides refuge for native animals and plants, and ancient Pueblo and Hispano acequias continue to be maintained by the United States Department of Agriculture's Natural Resources Conservation Service and the Middle Rio Grande Conservancy District. History The village of Corrales (Spanish for "corrals") is located along the Rio Grande river and is built on the site of two Indian Pueblos settled before AD 500 by the Tiguex Indians, and which were later occupied by Spanish ...

KTNN
KTNN is a Navajo language AM (medium-wave) radio station broadcasting on 660 AM from Window Rock, Arizona, the seat of the government of the Navajo Nation. It broadcasts Navajo tribal music and audio from Navajo ceremonial ('' powwow'') dances and Native American music, as well as country music and bluegrass in English. It also broadcasts High School basketball games from the local high schools on the Navajo Reservation. Most of its announcers are bilingual and broadcast in Navajo and English. At the time the station came on the air in 1986, it claimed to be the last station allowed to go on the air with a full 50,000 watts on another station's clear channel frequency; however, other stations have been allowed since. At night the station uses a directional antenna to protect, as required by FCC rules, the signal of WFAN at New York City, since WFAN is a Class A (formerly Class I-A) station broadcasting on 660 kHz and KTNN is Class B (formerly Class II-A).

Navajo Nation
The Navajo Nation ( nv, Naabeehó Bináhásdzo), also known as Navajoland, is a Native American reservation in the United States. It occupies portions of northeastern Arizona, northwestern New Mexico, and southeastern Utah; at roughly , the Navajo Nation is the largest land area held by a Native American tribe in the U.S., exceeding ten U.S. states. In 2010, the reservation was home to 173,667 out of 332,129 Navajo tribal members; the remaining 158,462 tribal members lived outside the reservation, in urban areas (26 percent), border towns (10 percent), and elsewhere in the U.S. (17 percent). The seat of government is located in Window Rock, Arizona. The United States gained ownership of this territory in 1848 after acquiring it in the Mexican-American War. The reservation was within New Mexico Territory and straddled what became the Arizona-New Mexico border in 1912, when the states were admitted to the union. Unlike many reservations, it has expanded several times since ...

Satellite Music Network
Satellite Music Network was the first satellite delivered network to provide complete live 24-hour-a-day music programming to local stations, under several different formats. History Affiliate stations, mostly in small and medium markets, could operate their stations virtually unmanned with nothing more than its existing tape-based playback equipment, a computer and a satellite hookup offering high quality air talent that they could never afford. The concept was the presentation of live, carefully selected and rotated hit music, presented by experienced major market industry veterans over a satellite channel in real time. Though nationally distributed, the presentation was localized by the network's talent pushing a button sending a subaudible tone over the network that would trigger a tape machine at the receiving station. For example, a button would be pressed triggering a local station's call letters and frequency (referred to as "magicalls") at the receiving station th ...
