History
The 104.7 MHz frequency in St. Cloud was originally assigned to KFAM-FM, which was owned by the St. Cloud Daily Times. A sister station of AM station KFAM, KFAM-FM began broadcasting in 1948.[7]
KFAM-FM was sold for $400,000 in 1975. The new owner, Alvar Leighton, changed the call letters to KCLD.[8]
