History
edit
Launched in 2006 as KTNL, in 2007, the call sign was changed to KXLJ, which became an affiliate for Air America. When Air America went under in 2010, KXLJ became an ESPN Radio affiliate.
On May 12, 2011, Seattle Streaming Radio, LLC sold KXLJ to Alaska Broadcast Communications for $250,000. On July 1, 2011, KXLJ changed formats to classic hits as "1330 KXJ", a "nod" to Los Angeles's KHJ from the 60s and 70s, under a new KXXJ call sign.
In October 2022, KXXJ, KINY, and KSUP were sold to Cliff Dumas' Local First Media Group for $1.3 million.[2]
