History
On April 16, 1964, KCAM signed on the air for the first time[2] just weeks after the 1964 Alaska earthquake.[5] At the time of the station's launch, KCAM was owned by Central Alaska Missions, Inc., which later became a subsidiary of SEND International.[2] From 2011 to 2015, the station was owned and operated by Alaska Bible College.
