History

In January 2004, R.P. Broadcasting, Inc., applied to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for a construction permit for a new broadcast radio station. The FCC granted this permit with amendments on April 27, 2007, with a scheduled expiration date of October 20, 2011.[3][4]

In December 2009, permit holder R.P. Broadcasting, Inc., reached an agreement to transfer the permit to Paskvan Media, Inc., for a total price of $30,000. The FCC approved the move on March 30, 2010, and the transaction was formally consummated on April 20, 2010.[5] The new station was assigned call sign "KPMI" on August 26, 2011.[6][7] After construction and testing were completed, the station was granted its broadcast license on March 1, 2012.[8]
