History

On October 1, 2016, KOMC dropped its gospel format and began stunting with Christmas music (the first station in the U.S. to do so) under the new KCAX calls. On January 1, 2017, KCAX began a format broadcasting Classic Country to the Branson area.[2][3]

On July 3, 2017, KCAX changed their format from classic country to classic hits, swapping formats with KRZK 106.3 FM Branson.[4]

gollark: I won't do this because it would be hard but it would be... cool for your bizarre usecase?
gollark: Revisions are identified by a unique random ID and exist in a directed graph. You can define mutable labels pointing to arbitrary revisions and links can go to these *or* a specific revision.
