Format and history

While the station was previously simulcasting sister station KBAD during its initial sign on, [ [http://www.dxing.info/news/2007_10.dx Radio News in October 2007] ] it currently is carrying programming from ESPN Radio.

KWWN officially signed on in December of 2007, and was running tests for several months on its transmitter. These tests were mainly to arrange the nighttime directional signal of the station, so it would not interfere with nearby KNZZ or other stations on 1100 kHz. While testing, the station ran at half power (10kw day/1kw night) to further limit the possibility of interference. It currently is running at its normal power.

The station's skywave signal was recently received in Salt Lake City, Utah. [ [http://www.ubstudios.com/slcdx.html Salt Lake City DX Logs] ]
