History

KDIX radio first went on the air May 16, 1947, with 250 watts of power.[3] It was purchased by Lee and Darlene Leiss in 1992 and the format was changed from Top 40 Adult Contemporary, to country rock and songs from the 1970s through the 1980s. This format change was to increase focus on the main age demographic of the area. Sports, local news and agriculture information, are their main programming features.

One of the best known radio voices in North Dakota, Rod Kleinjan has been on the air since 1972 serving Dickinson and the southwest North Dakota region with daily news, weather, and sports updates.

The station was assigned the KDIX call letters by the Federal Communications Commission.[4] The station is owned by Starrdak, Inc.
