History
Launched in 2006 as KTNL, in 2007, the call sign was changed to KXLJ, which became an affiliate for Air America. When Air America went under in 2010, KXLJ became an ESPN Radio affiliate.
On May 12, 2011, Seattle Streaming Radio, LLC sold KXLJ to Alaska Broadcast Communications for $250,000. On July 1, 2011, KXLJ changed formats to classic hits as "1330 KXJ", a "nod" to Los Angeles's KHJ from the 1960s and 1970s, under a new KXXJ call sign.
In October 2022, KXXJ, KINY, and KSUP were sold to Bryan Woodruff, Ted Ellis and Cliff Dumas of Local First Media Group for $1.3 million.[2]
