Station History From KOKF.com (1999)

Born out of a vision by Pastor Ron Dryden to provide teens and young adults with a positive alternative to the mainstream music heard on radio in Oklahoma City, KOKF was sold to RDM Broadcasting in October of 1985. As a 3,300 Watt non-commercial, listener supported station, KOKF literally started out with little more than a few boxes of records on the floor, a couple of turntables, and the desire to reach young people through contemporary Christian music. The response from listeners was tremendous. By our first year anniversary the radio station's note was completely paid off, allowing KOKF to operate debt free ever since. In September of 1991, after being granted approval by the F.C.C., KOKF raised its power from 3,300 Watts to 100,000 Watts, with a signal that now covers most of central Oklahoma!
