KBRD
KBRD (680 AM) is a non-commercial, listener supported radio station broadcasting a Nostalgia format licensed to Lacey, Washington, USA. The station is currently owned by ''BJ & Skip's For the Music''. The foundation is a 501(c)3 organization so donations are tax deductible. It is dedicated to the preservation of the music of the first half of the 20th century. It is a daytimer station, signing on at sunrise and signing off at local sunset to protect KNBR in San Francisco, California. As of May, 2014 KBRD programming can also be heard 24 hours a day on KCFL FM 89.5 in the Westport-Aberdeen, Washington area.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=KBRD Facility Record )〕
==History==
The station was assigned the call letters KNTE on March 7, 1994. On October 7, 1994, the station changed its call sign to KLDY then again on February 17, 1995 to the current KBRD.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=KBRD Call Sign History )〕
Larry "Skip" Morrow owned an FM radio station, but was interested in also owning an AM station. When he purchased what was to become KBRD, there wasn't enough radio equipment to go on the air. He was also interested in the KBRD call letters; when the station was ready to go on the air, they belonged to someone else, so the station signed on under his ownership as KLDY. When KBRD became available, Morrow transferred the KLDY callsign to his classical AM station at 1280, making 680 KBRD.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=KBRD History )〕
KBRD was named for BJ, Morrow's Moluccan cockatoo. who was the "music director". If BJ danced to the music, it was put on KBRD's playlist. Morrow ran both KBRD and his FM radio station from his living room. Ten years after KBRD went on the air, Larry Morrow died of cancer; before his death, he transferred ownership of the radio station to a foundation he created: ''BJ and Skip's For The Music Foundation''. Morrow's network of friends maintain the radio station with the help of the foundation.〔
