KINI first signed on the air on January 26, 1978. It was founded and operated by the St. Francis Mission.[4]
In 2017, KINI was sold by St. Francis Mission to the Rosebud Sioux Tribe for $1.00. The sale included the station’s building, 40 acres of land, and all broadcasting equipment. Following the transfer, the operations of the Tribe's existing non-commercial station, KOYA (88.1 FM), were moved into the KINI facility.[5]
