KSVA is a Christian radio station licensed to Albuquerque, New Mexico, broadcasting on 920 kHz AM. The station is an owned-and-operated affiliate of LifeTalk Radio. [1]
History
The station began broadcasting in 1947, and originally held the callsign KQEA and broadcast on 1450 kHz.[2] In 1951, the station moved to 1240 kHz.[2] In 1955, the station's callsign was changed to KQUE.[2] In 1957, the station moved to 920 kHz.[2] In 1958, the station's callsign was changed to KQEO.[2]
In the 1960s and 1970s KQEO aired a Top 40 format,[3][4] and was for a time the leading Top 40 station in Albuquerque.[3] In the early 1980s, the station aired an adult contemporary format,[5] and by the mid 1980s the station was airing an oldies format.[6] In the early and mid 1990s KQEO aired a news/talk format.[7][8] On January 23, 1995, the station's callsign was changed to KHTL.[9] As KHTL, the station aired a "Hot Talk" format.[10]
LifeTalk Radio acquired the station in 2000, in a station swap with Citadel Communications, in which LifeTalk Radio received this station and $5 million in cash, in exchange for Albuquerque's AM 610.[11] On April 17, 2000, the station's callsign was changed to KSVA.[9]
