KAFF (AM)

KAFF (930 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station in Flagstaff, Arizona. It is owned by Roger and Nancy Anderson, through licensee Flagstaff Radio, Inc. Most of the day, KAFF airs a classic country radio format. But in morning drive time, it has a talk and information show hosted by Jeff Kennedy. Updates are supplied by the KAFF news room and ABC News Radio. The station also carries Northern Arizona University sports.

By day, KAFF is powered at 5,000 watts using a non-directional antenna. But to protect other stations on 930 AM from interference, at night KAFF greatly reduces power to 31 watts. AM 930 is a regional broadcast frequency. Programming is also heard on FM translator K228XO at 93.5 FM. The station is branded as "KAFF Legends 93-5 and AM 930."

History
The station signed on the air in. The original call sign was KFGT. It was an automated station owned by Gene Philippi. Not long after signing on, the station went silent and was sold.

The new owner was Guy Christian, who changed the call sign to KAFF and put the station back on air that fall.



An FM sister station, 92.9 KFLG, signed on in 1968. It originally played adult contemporary music during the day, country music at night and classical music for a few hours on Sunday. The two stations swapped call letters on March 1, 1982, with the FM station becoming KAFF and the AM station becoming KFLG. On December 16, 1986, KFLG changed its call sign back to KAFF. KAFF 930 began airing classic country music, while KAFF-FM 92.9 concentrates on current and recent country hits.
