History

The station signed on the air on April 27, 1961. It originally held the call sign KEST. In 1970, the station's call sign was changed to KSPD, representing the word spud, slang for potato, one of Idaho's major agricultural products. KSPD adopted a progressive rock format.
By 1975, the station had adopted an all news format, which it continued to air into the 1980s. By 1989, the station had changed to a Christian radio format. In 2017, KSPD added an FM translator at 94.5 for listeners who prefer to tune in to FM stations.
