KISO (96.1 KISS-FM) is a Top 40/contemporary hit radio radio station in Omaha, Nebraska owned by iHeartMedia, Inc.. Until September 2, 2012, it was one of five radio stations that used "The Brew" branding, alongside sister stations in Oklahoma City, New Orleans, Columbus and Portland, Oregon. It was the second oulet to use the brand after WQBW/Milwaukee, which launched it in 2004, but in 2010 switched to Top 40/CHR as WRNW. KISO is licensed by the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to broadcast in the HD (hybrid) format.〔http://licensing.fcc.gov/cgi-bin/ws.exe/prod/cdbs/pubacc/prod/sta_det.pl?Facility_id=71411〕 ==History== 96.1 had a rocky history, but was successful in Omaha radio for nearly two decades, before it joined the Clear Channel group. Beginning in Council Bluffs, 96.1 made its biggest splash across the river. The change of city was made after a station known as KFAM had gone dark. In 1959 a station known as KCOM surfaced at 96.1 when a couple of hobbyist-types used 96.1 to broadcast Classical Music, with an Omaha license. Their studios were in the Rorick Apartments with a tower on top of the building, where it remained through the Burden years until toppled in the 1980 storm. During the Burden years KICN was the FM sister to KOIL. Although a simulcast with KOIL, The KICN call letters were being preserved from Burden's Denver property on 710 that didn't succeed and was sold off. During this time 1290 KOIL was going through the roof as AM's heyday continued in Omaha radio. In 1967 the call letters KOIL-FM were adopted. With call letters now matching its sister, KOIL-FM became one of the standard "Beautiful Music" formats on FM dials across the country. It was not until 1974 that it would resume its own identity as KEFM. In 1976 the Burden stations were shut down by the FCC, but KEFM resumed broadcasting in September of that same year, same Beautiful Music format. Same month, two years later, KEFM switched to "New Country". By 1980 KEFM was positioning itself as "The One". That same year KEFM's tower fell to the ground. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「KISO (FM)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
