History[]
The call letters KABN were previously used by a station owned by Valley Radio Corporation. That station was licensed to Long Island, Big Lake, Alaska, broadcasting at 830 AM. The station's studios and transmitter were actually located northeast of Big Lake proper, off of Johnson Road. This version of KABN operated from 1979 to 1988, when it was sold to Chester Coleman and subsequently shut down.
The station owner's surrendered KABN-FM's license to the Federal Communications Commission on July 19, 2018, and the FCC cancelled the license.
