CANON CITY, COLORADO–KRLN first went on the air at 7:30 a.m. Aug. 15, 1947. Broadcast at 1400 on the radio dial, KRLN was on the air from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday through Saturday.
That’s another AM & FM combo turning in licenses as radio takes it’s final breath.

We are almost to our goal. To those who have given to the cause…
While the city sleeps, the writing staff at QZVX stays up late, researching and writing. They bring you the latest information, PLUS stories about the good old days of radio and tv.

Canon City, Colorado is the place.
I stand corrected.
Seems like the owner, if going bust, would try to find a bargain basement buyer vs shutting down. I am glad I sold KBFW in 1998 when buyers were paying good money for radio stations. I cannot believe how cheaply most stations, even FM, have been going for in recent years.
I wondered about some of those bargain basement prices. Reality is the losses would continue after the sale. These days it is like throwing good money after bad. Still, wouldn’t K-Love snap up an AM-FM combo in the Pueblo-Colorado City area?
After all, K-Love only has 33 other stations in Colorado.
