History
This station received its original construction permit from the Federal Communications Commission on May 17, 2005.[3] The new station was assigned the KPCN-LP call sign by the FCC on June 13, 2005.[4] KPCN-LP received its license to cover from the FCC on November 28, 2006.[5]
On April 1, 2008, the station applied to the FCC for authorization to move from their licensed broadcast frequency of 96.3 MHz to 95.9 MHz.[6] On the same day, they applied for special temporary authority to broadcast on the lower frequency.[7] While as of September 7, 2009[update], the Commission has only accepted the authorization request for filing,[6] they granted KPCN-LP the special temporary authority they sought on August 25, 2008, with a scheduled expiration date of February 25, 2009.[7] On that expiration date, the station filed for an extension of their special temporary authority but as of September 7, 2009[update], the Commission has only accepted this extension request for filing.[8] It made its final broadcast on November 20, 2019, and its license was canceled on August 21, 2020, having been supplanted by the higher-power KTUP (98.3 FM).
