KDBI (730 AM) is a radio station in Boise, Idaho.[1] The station is currently owned by Impact Radio Group.[2]

History

The station was originally KBSU, a jazz format station. However, in 2011, it was sold to Impact Radio Group for $165,000. The station was previously operated by Boise State University.[3] On July 21, 2011, Impact changed the calls to KINF and adopted a conservative-leaning news-talk format. It simulcast the first two hours of America's Morning News with KINF-FM, as well as KINF-FM's entire weekend schedule.

On January 1, 2013, KINF split from its simulcast with KINF-FM and changed their format to sports, with programming from ESPN Radio.[4]

On April 30, 2013, KINF began simulcasting on FM translator K243BM 96.5 FM.[5]

On October 1, 2013, KINF changed their call letters to KNFL.

On February 24, 2017, KNFL began stunting with a loop directing listeners to KQBL-HD2 and FM translator K256CZ 99.1 FM Boise, as the "ESPN Boise" sports format moved to those frequencies.[6] The station changed its call sign to KDBI on March 10, 2017.
