KCLR (branded as La Nueva Radio Cristiana) is a radio station serving the Lubbock, Texas metropolitan area with a Spanish language Christian talk radio format. The station broadcasts on AM frequency 1530 kHz and is currently under the ownership of Paulino Bernal Evangelism.
The station was founded in 1963 by Phil Crenshaw and Gaylon O. Gilbert. The original power of that station was 1,000 watt, with power being raised to 5,000 watts non-critical hours (two hours after sunrise and two hours before sunset) in 1968. The original owners sold the stationto F.T. Wilson in 1969, who then sold the station to Pete C. Rodriguez in 1978. Rodriguez himself later sold the to Paulino Bernal, the current owner, in 1990.
Because it shares the same frequency as Clear Channel station WCKY in Cincinnati, Ohio, KCLR operates only during the daytime hours. The station sought the letters KCLR, or KCLeaR because of its placement on a Clear Channel.
