On July 21, 1969, the switch was flipped and the radio station in Knox was on the air!
The new radio station went on the air for the first time at 6 a.m. that day. Programming only lasted 12 hours until the hours expanded to a full 24-hour broadcast day. Country music was played on the FM station until the early 2000’s when an adult contemporary format was established.
Now, K99.3 WKVI provides music from the ’80s, ’90s, and today. Country music can be heard on AM 1520 Kountry KVI.
News, sports and the community calendar have always been a mainstay of the local programming and all of that information can be accessed on our popular website at www.wkvi.com.
Thank you for keeping this radio station number one in this area.
