The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) assigned the call sign KCKP to the station on August 19, 2011. [3] It was established as a non-commercial educational facility to serve the Lake of the Ozarks region. The station was originally licensed to the Lake Area Educational Broadcasting Foundation. [4] In early 2023, the foundation entered an agreement to transfer the license of KCKP and its associated translators.
KCKP is currently owned and operated by the University of Northwestern - St. Paul. [5] This ownership transition placed the station within the university’s "Faith Radio" network, which manages dozens of stations across the Midwest. [6]
