History

This station received its original construction permit from the Federal Communications Commission on June 11, 2002.[3] The new station was assigned the call letters KPFR by the FCC on June 27, 2002.[4]

On July 18, 2002, the Educational Media Foundation reached an agreement to transfer the construction permit for KPFR to Family Stations, Inc., as part of an elaborate settlement involving station applications in three states. The deal was approved by the FCC on September 9, 2002, and the transaction was consummated on December 6, 2002.[5] KPFR received its license to cover from the FCC on June 16, 2005.[6]
