History

KDUK has spent the vast majority of its years as a CHR/Top 40 station. In its early years, it had a Hot Adult Contemporary format as “K-Duck FM 105” before changing to Rock “Classics” 104.7 KLCX in late 1987. KLCX (also known as “The X”) was a Rock station until early 1993, when 104.7 returned to pop music, and the KDUK call letters. In 1993 (when the CHR format debuted) it was branded “Power 104.7 K-D-U-K” which evolved into its current branding; “104.7 K-Duck” by 1995.
