It originally broadcast Sunday through Friday and was based out of the Chapel building on Buckner Blvd. in an old choir rehearsal room. Sometime after 1968 the station and frequency were sold to North Texas State University to start up KNTU. - Stephanie Allen-Givens, Collections and Exhibits Manager
