KROB

KROB (1510 AM, The Conjunto Station) is a commercial radio station broadcasting a Tejano and Conjunto radio format. It is licensed to Robstown, Texas, and serves the Corpus Christi metropolitan area. The station is owned by Claro Communications, AKA B Communications Joint Venture.

KROB is a daytimer station. From sunrise to sunset, it is powered at 500 watts. But because 1510 AM is a clear-channel frequency, on which WLAC Nashville is the dominant Class A station, KROB must leave the air at night to prevent interference to the WLAC nighttime skywave signal. KROB programming is heard around the clock on two FM translators: K226CF at 93.1 MHz in Ingleside and K232DE at 94.3 MHz in Corpus Christi.

History
KROB signed on the air on February 22, 1963. It served the farming community of Robstown with a full service, country music format, including local news and agricultural reports. In 1966 KROB added an FM sister station, KROB-FM 99.9 (now KSAB). The AM and FM stations simulcast with the FM outlet providing nighttime service when the AM station was off the air.

KROB was assigned the call letters KGLF on August 1, 1993. On October 9, 2002, the station changed its call sign back to KROB.

An FM translator was added in the late 2000s to allow KROB to be heard on FM. Another translator was added a few years later.
