KRVN 880 is an AM radio station broadcasting a News Talk Information format. Its operators launched a sister music station with a similar callsign, KRVN-FM (River 93.1), in 1962.[2] Licensed to Lexington, Nebraska, USA, the station serves the central and western Nebraska area.[3] The station features agricultural news programming.[4]
KRVN is the second most powerful station in Nebraska, at 50,000 watts. During the day, it broadcasts from an 890-foot tower that covers almost all of Nebraska, as well as more than half of Kansas. As night, it switches to a directional four-tower setup to protect WCBS in New York City. Even with this arrangement, it is able to beam classic country music to western Nebraska, northwestern Kansas and northeastern Colorado.
The KRVN network is unique in that it is owned and operated by a cooperative of farmers and ranchers, the Nebraska Rural Radio Association, founded in 1948 and opening its first station, KRVN, in 1951.[2][3]
