History
The station went on the air on August 11, 1990, calling itself "The View" and broadcasting a smooth jazz format. It had earlier sought the calls KUKF but changed to KKVU The View a month before signing on. The station initially met acceptance but soon struggled in the ratings and on November 15th, 1991 flipped formats to classic rock and changed their call sign to KKCD.[3]
Journal Communications and The E.W. Scripps Company announced on July 30, 2014 that the two companies would merge to create a new broadcast company under the E.W. Scripps Company name that will own the two companies' broadcast properties, including KKCD. The transaction is slated to be completed in 2015, pending shareholder and regulatory approvals.[4]
