Радіо KARN-AM

KARN is a commercial sports and talk radio station at 920 AM in Little Rock, Arkansas, owned and operated by Citadel Broadcasting. Originally known as KARK-AM and later locally owned by Ted Snider before Citadel bought it, the station has long been the flagship station of the Arkansas Radio Network.

For a number of years, KARN 920 AM simulcast on two low power FM signals, including KVLO 102.5 FM licensed to Cabot, Arkansas, and KPZK 101.7 FM licensed to Humnoke, Arkansas. While both stations attracted substantial listener numbers, neither signal covered the Little Rock market well. In the summer of 2004, the decision was made to simulcast KARN full time on the 102.9 FM frequency, which had previously been a country station, but could not compete with heritage station KSSN.

In 2007, upon merger of nearly a couple dozen ABC Radio stations, Citadel Broadcasting relinquished 11 of its radio stations, including KARN-FM, to The Last Bastion Station Trust, LLC. However, the trust decided it would not simulcast KARN-AM, which had remained with Citadel, on KARN-FM; Citadel then transferred KOKY to the trust instead, and re-acquired KARN-FM.
