KVOQ-FM (102.3 FM) is a non-commercial radio station located in Denver, Colorado, at 102.3 FM and broadcasts a Public radio format under the ownership of Colorado Public Radio. ==Station history== KCUV (as the station was previously known) originally began on 1510 AM, and moved to the 102.3 FM signal in 2005, replacing the former KAGM (licensed to Strasburg, Colorado) that aired a contemporary country format for many years. The station's city of license was moved to the Denver suburb of Greenwood Village. KCUV featured a very large and diverse playlist, including a mix of rhythm and blues, classic rock, folk, alternative, modern rock, and blues and soul. The station's lineup included "KCUV's Live From Ebbets Field," a concert show featuring live, intimate performances from the best bands performing at Chuck Morris' Ebbets Field concert club in downtown Denver. KCUV also periodically had CD releases of "Live From Ebbets Field" performances in cooperation with Chuck Morris and Listen Up, with proceeds going to the Morgan Adams Foundation. On September 1, 2008 at 12:00 AM, KCUV ended broadcasting and became a simulcast of sister station KJAC (licensed to Timnath, Colorado), which aired the Jack FM-branded adult hits format (the first United States radio station to be so branded). The simulcast gave KJAC better coverage in the Denver area. In the Summer of 2010, after KCUV and KJAC were purchased by Moreland Properties, LLC, from NRC Broadcasting, KCUV dropped the Jack FM simulcast and began stunting. ''The Denver Post'' revealed in a July 15, 2010 report that KCUV would be adopting an all-sports format under the new call sign of KDSP, which would make it the 4th all-sports station in the Denver market. The format is scheduled to launch on July 26, 2010, and confirmed talent on the station include longtime KCNC and KEPN personalities Vic Lombardi and Gary Miller in an expected 7-9AM weekday slot.〔("Dealin' Doug Moreland talks about KDSP, new sports-talk station debuting next week" ), from ''Westword'', 7/21/2010〕〔("Vic Lombardi on making the jump from ESPN Radio to the new KDSP" ), from ''Westword'', 7/23/2010〕 On July 26, 2010, The Denver Post is reporting that the sports format originally set to take place on KDSP will make a last minute switch to another Denver station at 87.7.〔(Dusty Saunders: New names, dial places for Denver's sports-talk radio )〕 On July 27, 2010, KDSP changed their format to ESPN Deportes Spanish sports. In May 2010, the station was sold to Front Range Sports Network, LLC. In June 2011, Front Range Sports sold translator K245AD (licensed to Arvada, Colorado) to media investor Chuck Lontine. On March 31, 2011, KXDP-LP and KDSP switched formats and titles, with KXDP-LP becoming the ESPN Deportes affiliate and KDSP becoming 102.3 The Ticket. On January 1, 2012, KDSP became an ESPN Radio affiliate. On January 5, 2015, Colorado Public Radio acquired KDSP and converted it to non-commercial status as a simulcast of AM sister KVOQ's "Open Air" Adult Album Alternative format on January 27. The purchase was consummated on April 29, 2015 at a price of $5.75 million. Former sister station KJAC/Fort Collins continues to air the ESPN Radio format.〔("Colorado Public Radio Acquires ESPN 102.3 Denver" ) from Radio Insight (January 5, 2015)〕 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「KVOQ-FM」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
