KJSA (1110 AM) is a radio station licensed to Mineral Wells, Texas. It is a Biz Radio Network O&O station and features business-related programming from its network parent as well as top stories from CNN.

Because KJSA shares the same frequency as "clear channel" station KFAB in Omaha, Nebraska; it broadcasts only during the daytime hours.

History

This station was first established in 1946 as KFOP with an unknown format, which ran until 1983 when the station was revamped by its former owners Jerry Snyder and Associates to its current callsign with a Nostalgia/Oldies format (known as the "Music Of Your Life"). 20 years later, it was sold to M&M Broadcasters and it switched to a classic country format known as "The Radio Ranch".

On May 24, 2008, KJSA moved from 1120 to 1110AM and increased daytime power to 20,000 W, and the Houston-based BizRadio Network moved their DFW broadcasts from KMNY 1360AM to KJSA. (Another construction permit was on file in the early 2000s to move their broadcasts to Maple Grove, Minnesota; see KJSA info in "DFW Radio History - AM Stations" site.) Signal testing began in April, 2008, with 1360 and 1110 simulcasting BizRadio programming until May 24 and that same day, Biz Radio bought this station from M&M Bradcasters. BizRadio recently leased KTEK 1110AM near Houston, which puts their programming on the same 1110 frequency in both markets.
