KARA (New Mexico)

	KARA (New Mexico) KARA was a radio station on 1310 AM in Albuquerque, New Mexico, United States. The station operated from December 1, 1959, to May 18, 1968. Over much of its history, KARA encountered financial difficulties, which ultimately forced the station to cease operations and declare bankruptcy. History KARA began broadcasting December 1, 1959. It was originally owned by KARA, Inc., and became Albuquerque's ABC Radio affiliate. It was the tenth radio station in town, operating a continuous music format; launch promotions stated that the station was "Keeping Albuquerque Radio Active". The ownership, which had acquired the construction permit for $15,000 before sign-on, was headed by Nicholas White and John Gallagher. White sold his stock to Gallagher the next year. Later in 1960, KARA joined the fray as several applicants sought to build a station at 860 kHz, with KARA proposing to relocate its station from 1310 while keeping its power at 1,000 watts; three months later, the station ...

picture info	Radio Stations Established In 1959 Radio is the technology of communicating using radio waves. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves of frequency between 3 hertz (Hz) and 300 gigahertz (GHz). They are generated by an electronic device called a transmitter connected to an antenna which radiates the waves. They can be received by other antennas connected to a radio receiver; this is the fundamental principle of radio communication. In addition to communication, radio is used for radar, radio navigation, remote control, remote sensing, and other applications. In radio communication, used in radio and television broadcasting, cell phones, two-way radios, wireless networking, and satellite communication, among numerous other uses, radio waves are used to carry information across space from a transmitter to a receiver, by modulating the radio signal (impressing an information signal on the radio wave by varying some aspect of the wave) in the transmitter. In radar, used to locate and track objects like air ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]

	KKNS KKNS (1310 AM) is an American radio station licensed to Corrales, New Mexico, serving the Albuquerque metropolitan area. It is owned by The Navajo Nation and broadcasts talk and music programs in English and in the Navajo language. By day, it is powered at 5,000 watts non-directional. But to reduce interference at night to other stations on 1310 AM, it reduces power to only 82 watts. The transmitter is on Montbel Place in Albuquerque. History The sign-on of KXAK on July 15, 1985, returned 1310 kHz to use for the first time in Albuquerque since the demise of KARA in May 1968. KXAK, a contemporary Christian music station initially owned by Harold S. Schwartz and Associates, had been years in the making; the Federal Communications Commission had granted the permit in December 1979, but the station had suffered an unexpected setback when county commissioners denied the station's application to build a transmitter site in 1983 after KDEF, to which KXAK would have been ad ...

picture info	United Press International United Press International (UPI) is an American international news agency whose newswires, photo, news film, and audio services provided news material to thousands of newspapers, magazines, radio and television stations for most of the 20th century until its eventual decline beginning in the early 1980s. At its peak, it had more than 6,000 media subscribers. Since the first of several sales and staff cutbacks in 1982, and the 1999 sale of its broadcast client list to its main U.S. rival, the Associated Press, UPI has concentrated on smaller information-market niches. History Formally named United Press Associations for incorporation and legal purposes but publicly known and identified as United Press or UP, the news agency was created by the 1907 uniting of three smaller news syndicates by the Midwest newspaper publisher E. W. Scripps. It was headed by Hugh Baillie (1890–1966) from 1935 to 1955. At the time of his retirement, UP had 2,900 clients in the United States, and 1, ...
