History

The station began as KTOD in the late 1950s, featuring an Easy Listening format. In July, 1970, the call letters were changed to KIKN and the format was changed to country music. During the 1970s, KIKN was one of the most popular stations in the Corpus Christi market. The station changed its call sign on August 31, 1984 from KIKN to the current KDAE.[2] On January 11, 1999, the station's license was assigned by Nueces Radio Partners, LP to the current owners.[3]
